The State of Illiniweki is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 38.397 billion Illiniwekians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 8.5%.

The strong Illiniwekian economy, worth a remarkable 1,395 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 36,340 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

All tariffs have been abolished, the tenet of free speech is held dear, child labor has been outlawed, and Illiniweki has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is moderate. Illiniweki's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Illiniweki is ranked 231,446^th in the world and 6^th in Illinois for Lowest Crime Rates, with 55.83 law-abiding acts per hour.
