The Queendom of Ellabur3 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Queen with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, compulsory military service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 9.119 billion Ellabur3ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cider. The average income tax rate is 89.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ellabur3ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,947 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an amazing 213,564 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many are asking why the latest naval vessel is named after Saint Bartholomeus the Many Handed, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, roosters that herald the rising sun are immediately sent to the slaughterhouse, and the seventh son of a seventh son is fated to be a millionaire. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ellabur3's national animal is the Cocker Spainel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Anneorine.

Ellabur3 is ranked 21,932nd in the world and 483rd in The North Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,532.97646333888 days.
