The Principality of Ignas is a small, safe nation, renowned for its infamous sell-swords, anti-smoking policies, and restrictive gun laws. The democratic population of 45 million Ignasians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 36.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Ignasian economy, worth 2.06 trillion florins a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 45,881 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Shirts-versus-skins games are now skins-versus-skins games, it's often raining men (hallelujah) in Ignas City, Leader can finally stop kneading the dough and start rolling in it instead, and dining out often involves falcons on the plate no matter what you order. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ignas's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ignas is ranked 75,652^nd in the world and 2,048^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,833.45 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
