The Apocalyptic Hangover of ImSaLiA is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Ewis Taan with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 5.316 billion Imsalians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imsalian Capital City. The average income tax rate is 73.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Imsalian economy, worth 774 trillion lightning strikes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,609 lightning strikes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Only clowns with PhDs from clown college can advise Ewis Taan on ImSaLiA's coulrophobia epidemic, bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, advert breaks are played at lower volumes to make them easier to ignore, and artists attempt to convince the Hardship Fund that their unmade bed is a masterpiece. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ImSaLiA's national animal is the b̸͖̱̾o̵̺̰̽y̴̧̋k̵̗̒̉i̴͖̊̃s̸̥͑ͅs̷͓̅e̶͉͒̚r̷, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Stargazing.

ImSaLiA is ranked 135,949th in the world and 94th in Refugia for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 38,149.68 Standard Monetary Units.
