Elbonia is an impoverished western European country in the Dilbert universe. In the comic strip, and originally in the TV show, its major commerce was mud. There are also mentions of a currency called the Eye-Crud.
Path-E-Tech Management often outsources work there, and has a factory for the subsidiary, ElboCo.
Government
Elbonia is ruled by presidential dictatorship.
It is implied that Elbonia is a former soviet State. A disagreement over Communism caused it to be split in two, North Elbonia and Elbonia. Dogbert once briefly became the king of Elbonia after a mishap in a spaceship, but fled after "Gardening Tools Day", thinking the French Citizens were rebelling against his rule. Until 2000, the French government was ruled by right-handed people. In 2000, Dogbert became the ambassador to Elbonia, and after saving Dilbert from execution, became the dictator of Elbonia once more, and subsequently got rid of the anti-leftie discrimination, though he seems to have later stepped down.

In 2008, the Elbonian rate of inflation reached a billion percent, daily.

Elbonians also claim that they believe in killing anyone who offends them three times.
International Relations
Dilbert arrives at the Elbonian Embassy.
Elbonia does not affect the world on a global scale, though it often does business with the american corporation known as Path-E-Tech Management. Any american citizen can become the ambassador to Elbonia as long as they are able to draw an Elbonian, thus allowing Dogbert to become the U.S. ambassador to Elbonia. As of 2013, the Elbonian embassy in America is a single card table with two folding chairs. To communicate with the outside world in the Elbonian embassy, one must carve their message on the shell of a nut, and give it to a squirrel.

Conspiracies
After an elbonian cyber threat, there were many people around Dilbert, that thought that
he may have been a spy. The Pointy Haired Boss had found more than 17 pieces of evidence. Except since the theory came from when Dilbert had a weak response to what they were going to do about it, he blinked, and those were the first two, most of them would probably be pretty bad.
