The King of Turg0n is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Turgon with an iron fist, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 9.496 billion Elves are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gondolin. The average income tax rate is 74.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Elven economy, worth 494 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 quite specialized, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 52,112 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Parents dread their examinations more than their children, tech-mad citizens think that the laser-powered bread-slicer uPhone App is the coolest thing since sliced bread, more sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people, and politicians have to be granted day-release from prison to speak on bills. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Turg0n's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Turg0n is ranked 26,321st in the world and 213th in Suspicious for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 998.38 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
