The Kingdom of Izirtu is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 680 million Izirtuans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 30.5%.

The Izirtuan economy, worth 29.3 trillion golds a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,090 golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Izirtu's national animal is the lion.

Izirtu is ranked 112,233^rd in the world and 1^st in Mannaea for Safest, scoring 78.81 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
