The People's Republic of Islacane is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 958 million Islacaneans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 80.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Islacanean economy, worth 51.8 trillion marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming and Tourism. Average income is 54,087 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Snooze factory is now prison lingo for rehabilitation center, a suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, a byzantine web of conspiracies and secret alliances must be navigated any time legislation is voted upon, and I-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Islacane's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Islacane is ranked 21,118^th in the world and 4^th in Lily for Most Secular, with 61 Atheism Rate.
