The Gull Flag Republic of Iansisle is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Nicodemo Ranalte with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, unlimited-speed roads, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed population of 38.875 billion Iansisleans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ianapalis. The average income tax rate is 56.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Iansislean economy, worth an astonishing 19,612 trillion generals 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. 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 a breathtaking 504,490 generals, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
The streets are ravaged by murder and violence to prove political points, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, there's sophisticated talk of revolution within the ever-expanding mining colonies, and turning the other cheek is accompanied by a polite letter of complaint. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Iansisle's national animal is the seagull, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Iansisle is ranked 1,187th in the world and 4th in A Modern World for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 23,275.21 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
