The Iorisenial Isles of Ioresca is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Lumuosni Ray with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.208 billion Iorescans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blumisetris. The average income tax rate is 92.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ioresh economy, worth 378 trillion prayats a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 171,644 prayats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign invaders are putting Ioresh lab rats out of a job, spoiler warnings are now given out before political speeches, 1% of global paper production is bound for the National Archive, and the nation is experiencing a severe shortage of sporting events. Crime is totally unknown. Ioresca's national animal is the Ioresh Sheep, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Erutanism.

Ioresca is ranked 7,797th in the world and 290th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 469.4 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
