The Sovereign Corporation of Ivan Industries is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ivan Thiessen with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 15.341 billion employees enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Education and Defense are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Golden Towers. The average income tax rate is 8.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Ivani economy, worth a remarkable 4,473 trillion Bottlecaps a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 291,574 Bottlecaps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Street preachers sell salvation with a side order of shame on every corner, the "temporary replacement bus service" is now a permanent fixture, shivering secretaries type letters under torrential downpours in open-roof offices, and hell is not always other people. Crime is totally unknown. Ivan Industries's national animal is the Tiger, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is freedom of religion.

Ivan Industries is ranked 884^th in the world and 1^st in Holding Cell for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 268,248.58 Standard Monetary Units.
