The Republic of Imenvje is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by CEO Tukhim Dinilba with an iron fist, and notable for its flagrant waste-dumping, ubiquitous missile silos, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.002 billion Imenvians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Qaladukh. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Imenvian economy, worth a remarkable 1,469 trillion vijj qdhars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 183,698 vijj qdhars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,683,364 per year while the poor average 2,134, a ratio of 788 to 1.

Mandatory state-funded classes teach Libertarianism, the nation's new religious police burn blasphemers on bonfires of their own books, the Imenvian Tourism Bureau has described the abolition of coastal defences as a "kick to the groyne", and CEO Tukhim Dinilba's media campaigns take a hiatus around exam week. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Imenvje's national animal is the swan, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Yal Badh Uddaq.

Imenvje is ranked 257,535th in the world and 41st in Wysteria for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 43.47 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
