The Citizen's Republic of New Islington is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Dylan Stark with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 8.493 billion Islingtonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hower City. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Islingtonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,441 trillion Florins a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 169,779 Florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, criminals always seem to be forewarned of police raids, the government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits, and tourists need only sign on the dotted line to become citizens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Islington's national animal is the Dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Factualism.

New Islington is ranked 305,894th in the world and 1,426th in Europeia for Fattest Citizens, with 2.5 Obesity Rate.
