The Seafaring Republic of Ijaka is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Fleet Command with a fair hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.989 billion Ijakans 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 large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port West. The average income tax rate is 53.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Ijakan economy, worth 70.2 trillion ijakes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 17,599 ijakes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ijaka has designated Port West as its capital city, Fleet Command has just been declared ruler of Ijaka in an international press conference, and a major religion has been named as Ijaka's national religion. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ijaka's national animal is the trout.

Ijaka is ranked 125,024^th in the world and 4^th in Ijaka for Largest Populations, with 3.99 billion capita.
