The Incorporated States of Ironica Butterfly is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Forbes Wyoming with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, devout population of 10.823 billion Ironica Butterflyians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 69.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Ironica Butterflyian economy, worth 660 trillion aurelias a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 61,024 aurelias, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Travelers often bring empty plastic bottles on Air Ironica Butterfly flights to avoid the pay lavatories, internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, a bill to outlaw math homework has been submitted, and it turns out that money can buy you happiness. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ironica Butterfly's national animal is the butterfly, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Ironica Butterfly is ranked 12,070th in the world and 211th in 10000 Islands for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 9,847.3 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
