The Republic of IE-53 is a huge, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning swan population. The hard-working population of 692 million IE-53ians 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 Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 15.5%.
The IE-53ian economy, worth 32.8 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Soda Sales, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 47,379 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. IE-53's national animal is the swan.
IE-53 is ranked 148,052nd in the world and 1st in Ankh for Least Corrupt Governments, with 93.2 percentage of bribes refused.
