The Kingdom of Itza Mitzvah is a small, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 45 million Itza Mitzvahians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government is dominated by the Department of Spirituality, with Law & Order and Defense also on the agenda, while Environment and Industry are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.9%.

The very strong Itza Mitzvahian economy, worth 3.03 trillion agoras a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. Average income is 67,309 agoras, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 205,615 per year while the poor average 17,078, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Itza Mitzvah's national animal is the ram, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Itza Mitzvah is ranked 214,146^th in the world and 11^th in Jerusalem for Smartest Citizens, with 23.66 quips per hour.
