The Kingdom of Eldid is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by King Edric III with a fair hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, free-roaming dinosaurs, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 6.253 billion Eldidians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Eldidian economy, worth a remarkable 1,179 trillion sourons a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 188,615 sourons, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 578,825 per year while the poor average 47,544, a ratio of 12.2 to 1.

News headlines suggest that King Edric III has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, couples kissing on the street are detained for 'unlawful exchange of genetic material', entomologists flock to Elda for its remarkable gadfly population, and search-and-rescue organisations are the biggest employer in the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Eldid's national animal is the golden eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Eldid is ranked 332,215^th in the world and 61^st in International Democratic Union for Lowest Crime Rates, with 4.69 law-abiding acts per hour.
