The Republic of Ilythia Magna is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Gaius Iulius Caesar with a fair hand, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, prohibition of alcohol, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, humorless population of 4.719 billion Romans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Roma. The average income tax rate is 92.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Ilythia Magnan economy, worth a remarkable 1,698 trillion Denarii a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 359,972 Denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
More sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people, Ilythia Magnan athletes are close to breaking the 2 minute mile and the 16 meter long jump, self-driving cars obey the road rules even during emergencies, and serial commas clarify the relationship between one's lackeys, the taxpayers, and kinsfolk. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Ilythia Magna's national animal is the Aquila, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Ilythia Magna is ranked 73,682nd in the world and 76th in Goddess White for Most Stationary, with 642.14814458048 days.
