The Federal Queendom of Elisabethshagen is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Kanzler und Königin with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 9.248 billion Elisabethshageners enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elisabethshagen. The average income tax rate is 66.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Elisabethshagenian economy, worth a remarkable 2,105 trillion Guldens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 227,620 Guldens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Elisabethshagenian police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, hospitals are amongst the best-funded in the region, politicians have literally dirty hands from their extracurricular activities, and the government is seen to favor traditionalist religions. Crime is totally unknown. Elisabethshagen's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Evangelic-Lutheran Faith.

Elisabethshagen is ranked 112,273^rd in the world and 465^th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,356.46 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
