The Third Republic of Las Cortes de Iberia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Largo Caballero with a fair hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, rampant corporate plagiarism, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.963 billion Iberians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cadiz. The average income tax rate is 40.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Las Cortes de Iberian economy, worth 289 trillion Pesetas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 147,588 Pesetas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Creating cardboard imitations of missiles is a new top-secret military project, savvy students quote paywalled research knowing that university lecturers can't afford to check the citations, schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students, and populations of two-headed Retintoes have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Las Cortes de Iberia's national animal is the Retinto, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Pastafarism.

Las Cortes de Iberia is ranked 210,400^th in the world and 263^rd in The Kodiak Republic for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -4 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
