The Royal Federation of Ihaj is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Sovereigntor Ihaj II with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 2.842 billion Ihajans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gregoria. The average income tax rate is 94.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Ihaji economy, worth 425 trillion Powells a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 149,604 Powells, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many are asking why the latest naval vessel is named after Saint Bartholomeus the Many Handed, politicians are often found scavenging bins at night to supplement their income, grannies get pulled over for knitting pullovers while driving, and all the world's a stage for Ihaji political theatrics. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ihaj's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Ihaj is ranked 282,323^rd in the world and 16,563^rd in Lazarus for Largest Black Market, with 61.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
