The AI Corrupted Polish Republic of Iquerian is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by First Marshal Aleksander Jabłonowski with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, compulsory gun ownership, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.435 billion Poles are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Pole. The average income tax rate is 77.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Polish Iquerian economy, worth 615 trillion Gold Bars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 252,790 Gold Bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Political candidates must be personally vetted by First Marshal Aleksander Jabłonowski, guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, chest pains are considered part of the dining experience in Polish Iquerian restaurants, and viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Iquerian's national animal is the Pegasus Spyware, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is M O C Z A R.

Iquerian is ranked 19,049^th in the world and 390^th in Europe for Highest Food Quality, scoring 120.11 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
