The Night Parade of Izumo-no-kami is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Izumo-no-mae with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 11.21 billion Night Paraders have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government is primarily concerned with Education, although Industry, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Izumo. The average income tax rate is 39.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Night Parader economy, worth a remarkable 1,392 trillion mikons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,201 mikons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Shelters struggle to keep up with the endless intake of stray animals, sailors spend their shore leave helping old ladies cross the street, corporate lawyers are joyfully combing through the new tax code for any new loopholes for their clients, and powerful x-ray machines used by the Customs Department can see into the homes of nearby residents. Crime is totally unknown. Izumo-no-kami's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Shintoism.

Izumo-no-kami is ranked 69,612^th in the world and 3,936^th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.12 law-abiding acts per hour.
