The Holy Empire of Ioustinia is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 382 million Ioustinians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Spirituality, with Education, Welfare, and Administration also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 67.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Ioustinian economy, worth 11.0 trillion Bezants 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 Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Trout Farming. Average income is 28,752 Bezants, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth, crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed, Ioustinia's first free elections in recent memory have been successfully concluded, and city budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ioustinia's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ioustinia is ranked 72,549th in the world and 3,273rd in Balder for Safest, scoring 93.6 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
