The Community of Itland is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by pookapine with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 1.889 billion Itlandians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Itlandian economy, worth 197 trillion Euros a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 104,444 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
A rolling news ticker tape of disclaimers runs across the bottom of the screen on all TV shows, reporters who negatively comment on politicians' haircuts are cut from the news, major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, and government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Itland's national animal is the Dugong, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Itland is ranked 2,383rd in the world and 35th in Refugia for Nicest Citizens, with 64.42 average smiles per day.
