The Republic of IFoC1 is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 913 million IFoC1ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 34.3%.

The strong IFoC1ian economy, worth 56.7 trillion deniers a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 62,091 deniers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

The people's love for Leader is little more than self-preservation, the nation's drinking water tends to glow green at night, interviewees for teaching jobs are waterboarded to "reveal undesirable histories", and windows in IFoC1 City don't have much of a view. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. IFoC1's national animal is the elephant.

IFoC1 is ranked 253,050^th in the world and 122^nd in Avril Lavigne Nation for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -6.16 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
