The Phalanxite Empire of Igoria is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Emperor Veztazon II Sathrus with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 22.867 billion Igorians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Glopurg. The average income tax rate is 97.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Igorian economy, worth a remarkable 4,862 trillion Crowns a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 212,647 Crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The Foreign Ministry thinks an eye for an eye is a blindingly good idea, people faint regularly as they get stuck with compulsory vaccinations, the Department of Reduction of Bureaucratic Red Tape has set up a working committee to investigate its own excessive paperwork, and scientists are researching the best way to kill off humanity to prevent catastrophic war. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Igoria's national animal is the Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Myleclesian Ethreism.

Igoria is ranked 257,327^th in the world and 8^th in Austritaria for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -7.87 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
