The Most Serene Republic of Istastioner is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Alexandria Hamilton with a fair hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.104 billion Istastionerians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Milford City. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Istastionerian economy, worth 264 trillion Istastionerian Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 125,801 Istastionerian Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Only lightning has a chance of striking Alexandria Hamilton twice, refugees from other nations are flocking to Istastioner's border, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, and government statisticians explain census inaccuracies by declaring that "Sith happens". Crime is totally unknown. Istastioner's national animal is the Red Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Istastioner is ranked 53,352nd in the world and 214th in Refugia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.82 law-abiding acts per hour.
