The People's Republic of The Efteling is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 8.513 billion Eftelingians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Marerijk. The average income tax rate is 69.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Eftelingian economy, worth 511 trillion Gazetas a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,121 Gazetas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The government is using tax revenues to provide jobs for the poor, the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields, The Efteling is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, and the Gnome is a protected species. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Efteling's national animal is the Gnome, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Efteling is ranked 13,831^st in the world and 507^th in The North Pacific for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 79.85 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
