The Gull Flag Republic of Iansisle is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Nicodemo Ranalte with a fair hand, and remarkable for its flagrant waste-dumping, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 34.505 billion Iansisleans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ianapalis. The average income tax rate is 42.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Iansislean economy, worth an astonishing 15,058 trillion generals a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 436,407 generals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Procrastination is a national sport, the government has spent days debating the merits of a petition calling for a ban on sporks, chess hooliganism is on the rise after the banning of organised sports, and nude art is becoming wildly popular. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Iansisle's national animal is the seagull, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Iansisle is ranked 1,869^th in the world and 1^st in A Modern World for Highest Drug Use, scoring 117.6 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
