The State of Ilyb is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its burgeoning deer population. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 38.752 billion Ilybians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 20.5%.

The strong Ilybian economy, worth a remarkable 1,197 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 30,904 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, a major religion has been named as Ilyb's national religion, voting is voluntary, and Ilyb has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is moderate. Ilyb's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ilyb is ranked 196,953^rd in the world and 316^th in State for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 56.39 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
