The Fraternal Federation of Ilisseia is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Pietro Henry Aiden with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and national health service. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 7.788 billion Ilisseians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Illondcamwigburg. The average income tax rate is 89.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ilisseian economy, worth 768 trillion Ili Rubles a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. Average income is 98,673 Ili Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government's economic policy is "sort it yourself", fashion models are guaranteed to be 100% genuinely as anorexic as they appear on magazine covers, contestants on Ilisseia's Got Talent are screened by the government to make sure that they actually have talent, and sleep-deprived officials are known to collapse after late night revision for their examinations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ilisseia's national animal is the Sun Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ilisseia is ranked 229,679^th in the world and 10,575^th in The North Pacific for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -36.91 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
