The People's Republic of Iadras is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Mathew Janeczek with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.826 billion Iadrasians 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Itapolis. The average income tax rate is 49.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Iadrasian economy, worth 290 trillion Iadras Dollars 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. Average income is 49,813 Iadras Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians who misplace decimal points on expense reports are fired for gross incompetence, snap elections are called whenever there's a chance to increase Mathew Janeczek's majority, schoolchildren are taught to boo and hiss at Mathew Janeczek's name, and one little fight can find you movin' to be the fresh prince of Ilba. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Iadras's national animal is the Golden Eagle and its national religion is No Offical.

Iadras is ranked 168,716^th in the world and 843^rd in the Plains of Perdition for Highest Average Incomes, with 49,813.19 Standard Monetary Units.
