The Free Land of Ilikemonie is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 608 million Ilikemonieans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The powerhouse Ilikemoniean economy, worth 52.2 trillion Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 85,929 Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 336,179 per year while the poor average 14,962, a ratio of 22.5 to 1.

There is a heavy social stigma attached to e-cigarettes, newborns are being raised as mindless killing machines, the youth vote is only counted when kindergarten teachers ask who drew the best picture, and confused-looking pigeons slide gently off frictionless window ledges. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Ilikemonie's national animal is the Bald eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Ilikemonie is ranked 34,791^st in the world and 2,098^th in Balder for Most Corrupt Governments, with 62.63 kickbacks per hour.
