The Republic of Instruct is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 4.776 billion Instructians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.4%.

The very strong Instructian economy, worth 307 trillion lire a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Information Technology. Average income is 64,460 lire, with the richest citizens earning 9.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Instruct's national animal is the lion.

Instruct is ranked 105,739^th in the world and 5,246^th in Lazarus for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 92.74 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
