The Federal Republic of The Sacred Elite is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 464 million Sacred Eliteans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The minute government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.

The strong Sacred Elitean economy, worth 29.2 trillion francs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 62,978 francs, with the richest citizens earning 6.2 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Sacred Elite's national animal is the Jaguar Noble.

The Sacred Elite is ranked 167,841^st in the world and 138^th in The Sacred Elite for Most Developed, scoring 54.4 on the Human Development Index.
