The Christmas Winter Wonderland of Isla Palma is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its deadly medical pandemics, complete lack of public education, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 532 million Isla Palmen enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Pole. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.3%.

The all-consuming Isla Palman economy, worth 51.6 trillion Candy Canes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is 97,052 Candy Canes, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 612,240 per year while the poor average 6,446, a ratio of 95.0 to 1.

Minor parties are virtually absent in Parliament, military equipment stores have a tendency to go up in flames, anyone interested in the stock market is investigated, and the name of the "Butcher of Bigtopia" adorns shirts across Isla Palma. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Isla Palma's national animal is the Reindeer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Isla Palma is ranked 259,118^th in the world and 2^nd in Mar Soleado for Most Authoritarian, with 310.57 milliStalins.
