The Queendom of Eidelund is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 457 million Eidelundians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 67.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Eidelundian economy, worth 13.6 trillion Eidelmarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Gambling. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 29,863 Eidelmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens ask "how many crooks could a nunchuck hook if a nun had nunchucks too?", battlefield gains are quickly lost when enemies don't respect a time-out, the moral worth of national allies is judged by their GDP, and cheese has become the new icon of political dissent. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eidelund's national animal is the Fedele, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Eidelund is ranked 254,072nd in the world and 4,557th in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -7.75 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
