The Párnalen-Ístmenid of Escalan Corps-Star Island is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Executive Officer Lanáltiran Enguer'ad with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 25.752 billion Isladestelidni hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Teniana. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Isladestelid economy, worth an astonishing 11,206 trillion disékatads a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Soda Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 435,167 disékatads, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Interest in globalism never flags, pareidolic SETI scientists swear there's a message from aliens hidden within pi, passive-aggressive congratulations cards inform mums-to-be that their pregnancy is their greatest achievement in life, and intoxicated AI mobile platforms are sometimes seen crashing through windows instead of being crashed by them. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Escalan Corps-Star Island's national animal is the yralken, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Kamsákisad.

Escalan Corps-Star Island is ranked 19,358^th in the world and 2^nd in Ordis for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 5,815.11 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
