The Corporate Enterprise of Islaremistan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Grand CEO Auroras Estinlas with an iron fist, and remarkable for its flagrant waste-dumping, enslaved workforce, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 1.937 billion Islaremistani's are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Industry, although Administration, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alforntara. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Islaremistani economy, worth 317 trillion Entlinesmarks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 163,656 Entlinesmarks, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 920,049 per year while the poor average 14,384, a ratio of 64.0 to 1.

Injured workers are encouraged to 'stitch themselves up with their bootstraps', patriotic citizens chant "there's only one Islaremistan" at foreigners, airport security is provided by private companies, and heart attacks are regarded as a coming of age ritual. Crime is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Islaremistan's national animal is the Bull, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Atheism.

Islaremistan is ranked 334,980^th in the world and 172^nd in Mitteleuropa for Nicest Citizens, with 0.3 average smiles per day.
