The City-State of Iacon is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Optimus Prime with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 31.824 billion Iaconians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Iacon City. The average income tax rate is 51.2%.

The strong Iaconian economy, worth a remarkable 2,560 trillion Energons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Soda Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 80,458 Energons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The people are furious with the government for allowing citizens to be executed for petty crimes in foreign countries, online tourism reviews of Iacon are suspiciously positive and amazingly similar, unstable couples are known to break up over which one gets parental leave, and people regularly disappear off the streets and all evidence of them is destroyed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Iacon's national animal is the Dinobot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Iacon is ranked 160,731^st in the world and 1^st in Cybertron for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,100.99 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
