The Dominion of Ionistan is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Fu Sion with a fair hand, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, anti-smoking policies, and national health service. The democratic population of 16.545 billion Ionistanians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Isotope City. The average income tax rate is 83.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ionistanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,276 trillion Atoms a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 137,580 Atoms, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The wearing and manufacture of fur apparel is banned, all astronauts are hot twenty-something models selected because they have 'the right stuff', charity workers were first up against the wall when the time came, and a surprising number of travelers carry their water in vodka bottles. Crime is totally unknown. Ionistan's national animal is the opossum, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ionistan is ranked 4,657th in the world and 61st in NationStates for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 15,540.49 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
