The Intellectual Iconoclasts of Icarianna is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Rick with a fair hand, and notable for its conspicuous electricity pylons, ban on automobiles, and enforced nudity. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 39.404 billion Icariannans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Icarianna City. The average income tax rate is 22.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Icariannan economy, worth a remarkable 9,490 trillion nectar-laden flowers a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 240,846 nectar-laden flowers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

If someone says there's plenty of living space in Icarianna they're lyin', leisure is a crime in ski towns, jaw strain is an increasingly common ailment, and the Icarianna City State Museum is said to be haunted by ghastly musicians playing 'Nearer Violet to Thee'. Crime is totally unknown. Icarianna's national animal is the Butterfly, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Icarianna is ranked 308,326th in the world and 59th in Nudist Dreamland for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -34.28 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
