The CosmopolitanState of The IGER Civilization is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the State Control Council with a fair hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 21.906 billion Citizens of the IGER are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Visp on Planet Earth. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient IGER economy, worth an astonishing 11,330 trillion IGER-Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is a breathtaking 517,212 IGER-Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The State Control Council has more friends than ever before, candlelit dinners are less romantic with a flickering LED, people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, and IGER watches list strained wrists as a common side effect. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The IGER Civilization's national animal is the Sphinx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is scienctific atheism.

The IGER Civilization is ranked 5th in the world and 1st in SICON for Safest, scoring 328.63 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
