The Iraqi Republic of Islahh is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Thamir Radwan with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, keen interest in outer space, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 10.135 billion Iraqis are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Baghdad. The average income tax rate is 87.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Iraqi economy, worth a remarkable 1,193 trillion Iraqi Dinars 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 Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 117,741 Iraqi Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky, they unpaved paradise and tore up a parking lot (ooh, bop bop bop), heartbroken parents are urged to "smile for the camera", and state dairy cow's milk is a shear-thickening fluid that can stop small-caliber bullets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Islahh's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Islam.

Islahh is ranked 41,787^th in the world and 10^th in Greater Middle East for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 5,588.18 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
