The Grand Duchy of Iyari is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Arch-Duke Jefferson Iyari with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, democratic, cheerful population of 45.875 billion Iyarians 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 medium-sized government is primarily concerned with Education, although Environment, Defense, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Taracco. The average income tax rate is 41.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Iyarian economy, worth a remarkable 6,152 trillion Guineas a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Gambling. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 134,105 Guineas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Coffee cups have grown in size to accommodate the huge ingredients list, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, traumatised refugees have a full bedpan shoved into their hands along with their immigration papers, and Bigtopian interference in domestic elections is always democratically sanctioned. Crime is totally unknown. Iyari's national animal is the Cheat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Iyari is ranked 12,414^th in the world and 22^nd in Wysteria for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 78,720 Standard Monetary Units.
