The Ten Thousand Terrific Toads of Ikania is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Father Toad with an even hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, keen interest in outer space, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, humorless population of 20.876 billion Ikanians 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 Law & Order, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wartholm. The average income tax rate is 92.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Ikanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,780 trillion frogs 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, highly specialized black market in Information Technology, Retail, Book Publishing, and Tourism. 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 133,198 frogs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
I-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age, one tree's worth of paperwork accompanies each imported log of timber, religious leaders order congregants to love any neighbour who is just like themselves, and the government spends more on chasing distant comets than on basic infrastructure. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ikania's national animal is the toad, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Toadery.
Ikania is ranked 212,678th in the world and 261st in The League for Most Stationary, with 34.9524429082 days.
