The Radchaai Province of Ifreann is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Anaander Mianaai with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, humorless population of 39.877 billion Iffies enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ifreann Palace. The income tax rate is 100%.

The all-consuming Iffish economy, worth a remarkable 9,668 trillion credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an amazing 242,470 credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper, children are disappointed to learn that cavemen never had a yabba-dabba-doo time riding dinosaurs to work, and the nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ifreann's national animal is the fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is the Radchaai religion.

Ifreann is ranked 249,135^th in the world and 3^rd in The Isles O Chocolate Coatings for Most Pro-Market, scoring -73.89 on the Rand Index.
