The Federal Arsenal of Izhmash is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Supreme Soviet of Izhmash with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 21.959 billion Izhmashians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Izhevsk. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 86.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Izhmashian economy, worth a remarkable 3,605 trillion AK 74Ms a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 164,184 AK 74Ms, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 564,243 per year while the poor average 35,033, a ratio of 16.1 to 1.

The nation has reverted back to an agrarian society after anything more advanced than the wheel was banned, bands of paramedics walk the streets looking for suspicious medical activity, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Izhevsk to enjoy their national art, and nihilistic thrill-seekers claim that suicide by roller coaster is the ultimate life experience. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Izhmash's national animal is the Polar Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Secular.

Izhmash is ranked 102,771^st in the world and 23^rd in Autropolis for Most Stationary, with 165.08355406868 days.
