The Watchfires of IS-1 is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and complete absence of social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 27.845 billion IS-1ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, moralistic government prioritizes Law & Order, although Industry, Defense, and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and Environment receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 33.6%.

The strong IS-1ian economy, worth 921 trillion $$s a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,077 $$s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Throwing garbage out of your house's front window makes it legally someone else's problem, Violetist maidens who fall for an outsider must leave their violet light districts in shame, deceased politicians' MyFace profiles are unanimously pro-incumbent, and ten-year-olds regularly found their own political parties. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. IS-1's national animal is the Death's-head hawkmoth, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

IS-1 is ranked 174,187^th in the world and 1^st in Abaco Islands for Least Corrupt Governments, with 93.06 percentage of bribes refused.
