The Empire of Iolantis is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Supreme leader pingu with an even hand, and remarkable for its digital currency and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 7.117 billion Iolantians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Welfare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atago. The average income tax rate is 9.9%.

The Iolantisian economy, worth 368 trillion Ios a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 51,836 Ios, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

It's normal to start working life with crippling financial debt, the only crimes that get investigated are doughnut heists, signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles, and five-year-olds who refuse to line up on command get gold stars. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Iolantis's national animal is the Axolotl, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Iolantis is ranked 286,673^rd in the world and 457^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -7.48 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
