The Republic of Izern 25

“Mission Accomplished”

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

The Republic of Izern 25 is a massive, cultured nation, remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, disturbing lack of elderly people, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed population of 1.287 billion Izern 25ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 66.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Izern 25ian economy, worth 94.9 trillion pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,738 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Beating enemies to death with a baseball bat is legal if done within nine innings, many feel that the government's ban on cars to combat reckless driving was "a tad excessive", the nation has an international reputation for compassion, and the price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Izern 25's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Izern 25 is ranked 73,646^th in the world and 29^th in New Izern Farm Thingymabob for Most Patriotic, with 24.82 flags saluted per person per day.
