The Gold and Silver Alloy of Electrum is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by The Computator with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 23.505 billion Electrumites enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Centralis. The average income tax rate is 76.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Electrumite economy, worth a remarkable 4,197 trillion Synergies a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 178,587 Synergies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Families burn The Computator's latest official photograph to keep warm, citizens are remarkably well involved in the political process, men are finding 'she spots' more easily but they can't use them, and the only movement outdoors is of ramen-delivery drones. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Electrum's national animal is the Koala, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Satire.

Electrum is ranked 12,035^th in the world and 16^th in Rushmore for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,624.89 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
