The Lesbian Soldier's Republic of Isla Byron is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Victoria T'velas with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.207 billion Isla Byronistas are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Isla Wager. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Isla Byronian economy, worth 245 trillion Isla Byron Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 203,621 Isla Byron Pesos, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,148,588 per year while the poor average 17,761, a ratio of 64.7 to 1.

Victoria T'velas has awarded Victoria T'velas many medals in appreciation for Victoria T'velas's awesomeness, it is often said that only Victoria T'velas could bring down Dàguó, families consisting of more than three people are forced to split up, and foreign governments are looking into weaponizing the infamous Isla Byronian bee. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Isla Byron's national animal is the güiña, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is sapphomaxxing.

Isla Byron is ranked 30,519th in the world and 3rd in Starlight for Most Patriotic, with 42.77 flags saluted per person per day.
