The Holy State of Ikarus is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, ubiquitous missile silos, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 2.386 billion Ikarusians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Roma. The average income tax rate is 36.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Ikarusian economy, worth 448 trillion Lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 187,884 Lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Road rage is rarer but more terminal now that many people drive fully-operational battle tanks to work, thousands of cute furry kittens are trampling everything in their path (Ikarus has found 1 easter egg), scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and angry men scowl at each other across chess boards. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Ikarus's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Ikarus is ranked 6,149th in the world and 121st in Europe for Most Cultured, scoring 151 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
