The Kingdom of Iron Cladia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by King BrownTiger with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working population of 12.446 billion Iron Cladians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of San Jose. The average income tax rate is 73.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Iron Cladian economy, worth a remarkable 1,649 trillion Iron Cladia Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 132,571 Iron Cladia Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Most people suffer from some form of hearing loss, lottery winners spend most of their money on security, recognizing the Iron Cladian flag qualifies you for citizenship, and disadvantaged neighbourhoods have become no-go areas after sundown. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Iron Cladia's national animal is the Cougar, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Protestantism.

Iron Cladia is ranked 77,036^th in the world and 3,949^th in The North Pacific for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 2,583.77 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
