The Apocalyptic Hangover of ImSaLiA is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Ewis Taan with an iron fist, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, keen interest in outer space, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, cynical population of 5.366 billion Imsalians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imsalian Capital City. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Imsalian economy, worth 810 trillion lightning strikes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 150,982 lightning strikes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Skyscrapers get built in just days, airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, too many developers spoil the codebase, and a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ImSaLiA's national animal is the b̸͖̱̾o̵̺̰̽y̴̧̋k̵̗̒̉i̴͖̊̃s̸̥͑ͅs̷͓̅e̶͉͒̚r̷, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Stargazing.

ImSaLiA is ranked 35,465th in the world and 23rd in Refugia for Most Corrupt Governments, with 61.35 kickbacks per hour.
