The Grapes of Wrath of IslesScilly is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed population of 26.39 billion IslesScillyians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 52.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong IslesScillyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,429 trillion $$s a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,179 $$s, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Third world countries are rich in "I Love IslesScilly City" t-shirts, pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security, the latest guided missile cruiser "Ship-1642" has received precisely zero column inches in the press, and elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. IslesScilly's national animal is the laughing swordfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

IslesScilly is ranked 154,376^th in the world and 1^st in Isles of Scilly for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,410.07 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
