The ⠀⠀ of IZERN is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by ⠀⠀ with an even hand, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, unlimited-speed roads, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 8.118 billion ⠀⠀ are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ⠀⠀. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.9%.

The frighteningly efficient ⠀⠀ economy, worth a remarkable 3,662 trillion ⠀⠀s a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 451,198 ⠀⠀s, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 4,157,673 per year while the poor average 4,939, a ratio of 841 to 1.

Legislators must raise their hands if they want to speak, the government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress, decades-serving politicians are now both out of touch and out of time, and guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. IZERN's national animal is the ⠀⠀, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is ⠀⠀.

IZERN is ranked 319,956th in the world and 4,794th in The North Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -29.5 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
