The United Kingdom of Iori is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its frequent executions and suspicion of poets. The hard-working population of 5.029 billion Iorians 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 Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 23.9%.

The Iorian economy, worth 199 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 39,749 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs, lawyers turn down litigation cases and corporate work in order to focus on lucrative public defence work, the government is under the thumb of countless special interests, and student athletes gaze forlornly at abandoned Kitsuneball fields. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Iori's national animal is the Kitsune, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Iori is ranked 45,157^th in the world and 2^nd in five for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 5,129.44 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
