The Christian Republic of Idoho is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Marcus Jems with an iron fist, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 21.304 billion Idohoans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Idoho City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Idohoan economy, worth a remarkable 3,722 trillion Idohoas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 174,755 Idohoas, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,092,631 per year while the poor average 11,882, a ratio of 92.0 to 1.

The line of people waiting for a visa interview in front of foreign embassies is typically a mile long, warning signs caution Idohoans where they may fall off 'the edge of the world', nursing mothers are often arrested for indecent exposure, and virtually all of the country's economic activity takes place in Idoho City. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Idoho's national animal is the Idohoan Fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Idohoan National Church.

Idoho is ranked 2,279^th in the world and 1^st in Zentari for Most Corrupt Governments, with 327.73 kickbacks per hour.
