The Leprechaun in the Trees of Illahee is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Harry Henderson with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, digital currency, and vat-grown people. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.459 billion Squatches hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wahkiakum. The average income tax rate is 85.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Squatchy economy, worth a remarkable 2,032 trillion gold clams 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 black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. 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 an amazing 214,897 gold clams, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Blue sky thinkers are reminded that the firmament is actually more of a grey-ish colour, nude art is becoming wildly popular, national parks have long lines of different gender-specific 'Porta-Pottys', and Illahee is suspiciously populated compared to its neighbors. Crime is totally unknown. Illahee's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Squatch Rite.
Illahee is ranked 4,352nd in the world and 3rd in The Sasquatch Republic for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 15,614.72 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
