The Interplanetary Authority of Icarus Administration is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Administrator Cord with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 10.53 billion Icarus Administration Officers have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Central Headquarters. The average income tax rate is 35.3%.

The strong Administrative economy, worth 693 trillion Adminioles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 65,884 Adminioles, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's youth is held blameless for all crimes, manual labourers must be willing to have cybernetic limbs to get a job, the nation is reliant on the principle of mutually assured destruction to maintain its security, and the government has an "easy come, easy go" policy on youth crime. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Icarus Administration's national animal is the Administrative Fauna, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Bureaucracy.

Icarus Administration is ranked 72,107^th in the world and 4^th in Icarus for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,951.48 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
