The High Kingdom of Ivernia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Nuada Airgetlám with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, daily referendums, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 12.033 billion Ivernish enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caladbolg. The average income tax rate is 68.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Ivernish economy, worth 627 trillion Órs a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. Average income is 52,182 Órs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Wealthy students ride to school past mendicant dropouts, prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news, and televangelists flaunt their expensive cars when they attend charity events. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ivernia's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Ivernia is ranked 67,837^th in the world and 658^th in Europe for Largest Governments, scoring 16.22 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
