The High Kingdom of Ivernia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Nuada Airgetlám with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 18.448 billion Ivernish 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — prioritizes Healthcare, with Education, Environment, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caladbolg. The average income tax rate is 75.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Ivernish economy, worth a remarkable 1,131 trillion Órs a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 61,358 Órs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Wealthy students ride to school past mendicant dropouts, prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news, and televangelists flaunt their expensive cars when they attend charity events. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ivernia's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Ivernia is ranked 287,115^th in the world and 1,386^th in Europe for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -16.79 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
