The Republic of Ilkra is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by President with a fair hand, and renowned for its digital currency, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 12.021 billion Ilkrans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ithaca. The average income tax rate is 31.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ilkran economy, worth a remarkable 3,081 trillion Shekels a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 256,359 Shekels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts, and a traveller who once stubbed a toe on an Air Brancaland flight has been offered asylum. Crime is totally unknown. Ilkra's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Humanism.

Ilkra is ranked 12,680^th in the world and 30^th in Wintreath for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,618.4 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
