The Colony of Isdormenia is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its public floggings, frequent executions, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 300 million isdormênos are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Banwilton. The average income tax rate is 17.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Isdormenian economy, worth 16.2 trillion Belfas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. Average income is 53,900 Belfas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Smoking is banned in public areas, government employees have reverted to carrier pigeon due to never-ending virus scans, the military has quashed a recent coup attempt, and Isdormenia has designated Banwilton as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Isdormenia's national animal is the Dromefo, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Isdormenia is ranked 84,927^th in the world and 159^th in The Kodiak Republic for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 94.87 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
