The Empire of Elzbieta is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jeff the Cat with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, complete absence of social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.512 billion Elzbietans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jefftopia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 57.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Elzbietan economy, worth 169 trillion Celery Sticks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,369 Celery Sticks, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

The monarch frequently needs protecting from misfiring protection, the children of Elzbieta are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence, the government believes there is no problem that raising taxes won't fix, and government ministers have eclectic tastes in curtains. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elzbieta's national animal is the Tabby Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Elzbieta is ranked 191,117^th in the world and 21^st in Benigtopia for Largest Populations, with 1.51 billion capita.
