The Socialist Union Protectorate of IVN is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Ivan with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.622 billion Ivanians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Libertas-10. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 28.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Ivanian economy, worth 139 trillion Civil Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Gambling. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 85,864 Civil Credits, with the richest citizens earning 6.6 times as much as the poorest.

Ivan reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, and literally voiceless people are unable to protest when food and water are denied to them. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. IVN's national animal is the Tri-winged Peregrine Falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Christianity.

IVN is ranked 248,737^th in the world and 1,933^rd in the West Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 91.09 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
