The Sharkdom of Iketon

“In Blahaj we trust”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Sharkdom of Iketon is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Maxwell with an even hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, state-planned economy, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate population of 4.334 billion Iketonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ikea. The average income tax rate is 39.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Iketonian economy, worth 460 trillion AFTONSPARVS a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 106,272 AFTONSPARVS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Imitation is the sincerest form of felony, the people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth, the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks, and the news is showing footage of Maxwell bullying an old man to the point of tears. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Iketon's national animal is the Blahaj, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Blahajism.

Iketon is ranked 289,211^th in the world and 1^st in Chronesia for Fattest Citizens, with 5.7 Obesity Rate.
