The Iorisenial Isles of Ioresca is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Lumuosni Ray with a fair hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, state-planned economy, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.251 billion Iorescans 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 large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blumisetris. The average income tax rate is 93.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ioresh economy, worth 387 trillion prayats a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 172,239 prayats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Books are so highly regarded in Ioresca that libraries are often revered as holy shrines, Ioresca's citizens often wander into each other's homes, Lumuosni Ray can often be found attempting to coax random citizens' cats down from trees, and shoppers carry protractors to verify their produce. Crime is totally unknown. Ioresca's national animal is the Ioresh Sheep, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Erutanism.

Ioresca is ranked 3,389^th in the world and 165^th in The North Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 56.17 average smiles per day.
