The Queen's State of Ionian State is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 22.941 billion Ionian Statesmen live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The very strong Ionian Statean economy, worth 937 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 40,857 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 277,778 per year while the poor average 2,195, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, the government is avowedly atheist, and Ionian State has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Ionian State's national animal is the deer.

Ionian State is ranked 182,844^th in the world and 8^th in Malabo for Most Primitive, scoring -72.11 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
