The Seconde République of Islonia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Executive Council with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, digital currency, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.956 billion Islonians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alpina. The average income tax rate is 81.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Islonian economy, worth 203 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an impressive 104,161 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Former customs officers are adjusting to their new lives as market stall traders, on graduation day the hats thrown in the air fly high enough to stun passing pigeons, politicians always seem to take two steps forward then three steps back, and the government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system. Crime is totally unknown. Islonia's national animal is the Alpaca, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Islonia is ranked 141,696^th in the world and 325^th in Thaecia for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 48.95 Workforce Participation Rate.
