The Natural Order of Itzoma is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Itzo with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 32.194 billion Itzomen are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed, including voting. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The minute, corrupt government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Law & Order, with Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shamballah. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.2%.

The all-consuming Itzoman economy, worth a remarkable 2,798 trillion Byzantiums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 86,915 Byzantiums, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 280,448 per year while the poor average 20,371, a ratio of 13.8 to 1.

The government is denying reports that criminals injected with experimental drugs have turned into monstrous supervillains, the thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions, talkative students are escorted from schools in second-hand prison buses, and kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Itzoma's national animal is the Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Orthodoxy.

Itzoma is ranked 209,556^th in the world and 47^th in Texas for Highest Poor Incomes, with 20,371.53 Standard Monetary Units.
