“I tire of the weight of mortality”

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

The Republic of Ioke 31 is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its avant-garde cinema, daily referendums, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate population of 6.681 billion Ioke 31ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 45.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Ioke 31ian economy, worth 413 trillion salts a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,920 salts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Textbooks are exactly twice as heavy as they used to be, lumberjacks only use certified eco-friendly chainsaws, pet owners must make a payment if their charges leave a deposit, and concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ioke 31's national animal is the llama, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ioke 31 is ranked 195,272^nd in the world and 3,411^th in Artificial Solar System for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -3.16 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
