The Federal Republic of Alto Ipiranga is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Carolina Guelere with an even hand, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, parental licensing program, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 4.956 billion Ipiranguenses 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capivari. The average income tax rate is 53.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Alto Ipirangan economy, worth 938 trillion Ipisolis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 189,333 Ipisolis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, owners of man-portable particle accelerator backpacks are advised not to cross the streams, human pie shops continue to receive shipments of meat from Spleeny Rodd's, and citizens must pay to enjoy Alto Ipiranga's pristine beaches. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Alto Ipiranga's national animal is the Capivara, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Ateísmo.

Alto Ipiranga is ranked 279,175^th in the world and 104^th in Flanelistan for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.67 kickbacks per hour.
