The I of I of Ierilla is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by I with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ritual sacrifices, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.773 billion Ierillans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of I. The average income tax rate is 74.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Ierillan economy, worth a remarkable 1,431 trillion Nerds a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 248,036 Nerds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.
The new national mascot has to be wheeled onto the field of play, no suburban lawn is complete without barbed wire and landmines, street crime is on the rise as police officers spend most of their time in prisons, and drug lords often avoid prison time by teaching "chemistry" classes to underprivileged youth. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ierilla's national animal is the Unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Ierilla is ranked 45,189th in the world and 53rd in Nerdlandia for Most Stationary, with 971.74508641608 days.
