The Pink Holy Lucky Christmas of Izern is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Santa Claus with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working population of 3.049 billion Santa Clauses have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. The average income tax rate is 78.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Izernian economy, worth 449 trillion Candy Cane Gold Bars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 147,402 Candy Cane Gold Bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, there's a hole in the heart of every Izernian city, and billions of Candy Cane Gold Bars are being blown on orbital weapons development. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Izern's national animal is the Bat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Athyism.

Izern is ranked 15,068th in the world and 648th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 116.49 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
