The United States of Isabela-PR- is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, pith helmet sales, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 3.596 billion Isabela-PR-ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 47.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Isabela-PR-ian economy, worth 461 trillion dollars 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 an impressive 128,303 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 8.8 times as much as the poorest.

Male med students learning female anatomy do so with their eyes tightly closed, stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, the government's fruit business reeks of rotting produce and corruption, and the relatives of suicide victims tend to be angry rather than sad. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Isabela-PR-'s national animal is the bald eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Isabela-PR- is ranked 164,209th in the world and 322nd in Aerospace for Highest Food Quality, scoring 14.39 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
