The Federation of Illyanisches Demokratische Republik is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, national health service, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 226 million Illyanisches Demokratische Republikians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 71.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Illyanisches Demokratische Republikian economy, worth 21.0 trillion Illyas 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 a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. 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 92,747 Illyas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians look weirdly alike, the only things Illyanisches Demokratische Republikians vote on are cutest Александр Белый competitions, Harry Potter books are banned, and heavily-armed commandos play rock-paper-scissors over whether to execute criminals and foreign visitors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Illyanisches Demokratische Republik's national animal is the Александр Белый, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Illyanisches Demokratische Republik is ranked 167,561^st in the world and 8^th in Z H I R E G A N C for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 726.92 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
