The Axempar of Great Ignesia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Lexoskhena with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.309 billion Ignesians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vrezar Vimicia. The average income tax rate is 70.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ignesian economy, worth 209 trillion nixes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 160,033 nixes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

GI-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age, reddish-brown is the new black, the military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, and troop transports blacken the sky as the military commences Operation Desert Ocean. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Great Ignesia's national animal is the exarivenil, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Nexarnism.

Great Ignesia is ranked 278,128^th in the world and 5,868^th in The North Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.68 kickbacks per hour.
