The Republic of Isbinland is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Jack Rygelski with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, avowedly heterosexual populace, and frequent executions. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.953 billion Isbinians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Isbin. The average income tax rate is 9.3%.

The strong Isbinlandian economy, worth 152 trillion isbons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 78,231 isbons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

The tax department is having withdrawal symptoms, scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, autopsies often involve only cursory examination, and oil executives can be seen reluctantly cleaning oil-soaked birds. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Isbinland's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Isbinland is ranked 308,634^th in the world and 4^th in Yumarkan Commonwealth for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -4.47 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
