The Kanye is in his festive mood of Izern is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Kanye West with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.259 billion Izernians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of South Side Chicago. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 85.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Izernian economy, worth 870 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 204,286 Dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,213,743 per year while the poor average 15,787, a ratio of 76.9 to 1.

Murder comes with a cash prize if the victim was previously incarcerated, the rich tend their gardens inside gated urban farming communities, media bosses are discovering the cost of being free, and the armed forces insist that UFOs aren't real... yet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Izern's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is None.

Izern is ranked 86,665^th in the world and 1,652^nd in The North Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 3,473.3 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
