The United Kingdom of Michigan IVT is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by King Jonathan I with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, pith helmet sales, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 12.125 billion Ivani enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lansing. The average income tax rate is 11.9%.

The powerhouse Ivani economy, worth a remarkable 1,098 trillion Crowns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is 90,574 Crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Vital intelligence-gathering activities are often put on hold for Call of Honor tournaments, withdrawal of support for drug addicts is leaving many with cold sweats, the distracting décor lining the roads causes multiple pile-ups, and frustrated teenage boys are told that if they like it then they should have put a ring on it. Crime is almost non-existent. Michigan IVT's national animal is the White-tailed Deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Church of the Lady.

Michigan IVT is ranked 218,798^th in the world and 10^th in Holding Cell for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -3.61 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
