The State of Lady Eliza is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its absence of drug laws and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 19.939 billion Lady Elizans enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, liberal, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, although Education is also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.5%.

The thriving Lady Elizan economy, worth 543 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is highly specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Retail. Average income is 27,276 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 81,102 per year while the poor average 7,192, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, the government is avowedly atheist, and Lady Eliza has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Lady Eliza's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lady Eliza is ranked 227,843^rd in the world and 4^th in Pittsburgh for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -6.32 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
