The Queendom of Iluris is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jessica Hooves with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, rampant corporate plagiarism, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 25.532 billion Ilurisians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dandelion Heights. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Ilurisian economy, worth a remarkable 3,532 trillion ilurans a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. Average income is an impressive 138,366 ilurans, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High school bands practice by moonlight, military equipment is being auctioned off to extend comatose centenarians' lives, back-alley holistic doctors carry crystals in long trench coats, and RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept. Crime is totally unknown. Iluris's national animal is the spotted hyena, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Princess Celestianity.

Iluris is ranked 8,955th in the world and 5th in Equestria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 103.14 law-abiding acts per hour.
