The Democratic Republic of Intolia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Mari Willa with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 8.877 billion Intolians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Defense receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Derminia. The average income tax rate is 91.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Intolian economy, worth a remarkable 1,323 trillion Shillings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 149,078 Shillings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political spontaneity takes a lot of planning, with increasingly clear skies nobody seems to mind the electricity bill going through the roof, snitches get riches, and vital intelligence-gathering activities are often put on hold for Call of Honor tournaments. Crime is totally unknown. Intolia's national animal is the phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Intolia is ranked 147,512^th in the world and 1^st in Aolian Customs Union for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 1,809.4 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
