The Federal Republic of Ilha Nova do Sul is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Presidente Moisés Nascimento with a fair hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.123 billion Sulilenseses 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ilhas Unidas. The average income tax rate is 56.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Ilha Nova do Sulian economy, worth 111 trillion Reais a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 99,168 Reais, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government popup ads are springing up like weeds, citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, 'Totally Not Partisan News' is a line item on the government budget, and a cyber-war between file sharers and the music industry formats hard drives across the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ilha Nova do Sul's national animal is the Arara-azul, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ilha Nova do Sul is ranked 25,389^th in the world and 63^rd in Concord for Highest Food Quality, scoring 94.39 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
