The Most Serene Republic of Istastioner is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Alexandria Hamilton with an even hand, and renowned for its closed borders, hatred of cheese, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 6.029 billion Istastionerians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Milford City. The average income tax rate is 97.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Istastionerian economy, worth a remarkable 1,365 trillion Istastionerian Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 226,523 Istastionerian Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Burglars are known for taking cash, socks, and other valuables, an iron curtain has descended around the nation, on-duty Air Istastioner flight attendants are usually seen napping in first class, and citizens select which government department gets their income tax Istastionerian Credits each year. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 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 11,673rd in the world and 236th in Europe for Most Cultured, scoring 112 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
