The Allied States of The Iron Lions is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Father Lionel Atrox with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 15.231 billion Iron Lions are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Father Lion's Hall. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Iron Lionisian economy, worth a remarkable 2,394 trillion Lionisian Crowns a year, is highly specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 157,239 Lionisian Crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Contemporary art museums showcase the latest in centuries-old art, the navy's new flotilla is gonna be a thrilla, souvenir shops that sell alphorns are taking advantage of gullible tourists, and enemy agents are generally eliminated with extreme prejudice. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Iron Lions's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Secularism.

The Iron Lions is ranked 20,649th in the world and 832nd in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 275.22 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
