The Republic of Im Through is a fledgling, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning freak population. The hard-working population of 5 million Im Throughians 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 juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 21.0%.

The Im Throughian economy, worth 208 billion albums a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 41,515 albums, 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. Im Through's national animal is the freak.

Im Through is ranked 205,975^th in the world and 2,053^rd in Eye for Nudest, with 112.5 cheeks per square mile.
