The People's Republic of INGAU is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Bigger Brother with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.126 billion INGAUians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capitolium Imperium. The average income tax rate is 63.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient INGAUian economy, worth 45.7 trillion INGAUCS 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 large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. 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 40,599 INGAUCS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Diplomacy is a foreign concept to INGAUians, politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech, billions of INGAUCS are being poured into a space program, and postcards from INGAUian driving test centres are popular souvenirs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. INGAU's national animal is the Sickle and the hammer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

INGAU is ranked 202,753rd in the world and 8,571st in Osiris for Largest Populations, with 1.13 billion capita.
