The Higher Realm of Ishwarasthan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Sunet with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, avowedly heterosexual populace, and national health service. The compassionate, devout population of 1.835 billion Ishwarasthanis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Vaikunthdakshineswar. The average income tax rate is 95.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Ishwarasthanian economy, worth 257 trillion Suns a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 140,510 Suns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Traveller camps regularly block five-lane superhighways, children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces, poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild, and astronomers are flocking to Ishwarasthan to take advantage of its clear night skies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ishwarasthan's national animal is the Cockatiel Parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Vedic Christianity And sanatana dharma.

Ishwarasthan is ranked 16,453rd in the world and 31st in Karma for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,333.91 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
