The Constitutional Monarchy of Illu-chi is a huge, safe nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 363 million Illu-chians 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 medium-sized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 24.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Illu-chian economy, worth 30.6 trillion Yen a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is 84,226 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Voter turnout for the election of the Junior Assistant for Non-Digital Media Strategies has been unsurprisingly low, the inside lane of every highway is for parked vehicles only, the government merely sends empty platitudes whenever natural disasters strike foreign nations, and X-Files ratings have hit an all-time low. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Illu-chi's national animal is the Yo-kai, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Illu-chi is ranked 203,543rd in the world and 13th in Free The Cheese for Most Extreme, scoring 8.2 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
