The Empire of Idefelyt is a large, pleasant nation, renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 120 million Idefelytians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.0%.

The strong Idefelytian economy, worth 6.18 trillion Dunars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Pizza Delivery, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 51,522 Dunars, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.

A murderous reputation can revitalise a flagging celebrity career, the dartboard at the Idefelytian Cancer Research Charity bears a picture of Leader's face, The Very Hungry Caterpillar has been banned for advocating gluttony, and it's never "just a game" with Idefelytian sports fans. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force. Idefelyt's national animal is the Idian Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Idefelyt is ranked 147,467^th in the world and 9^th in Nihungopatra for Safest, scoring 63.25 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
