The Federation of The Infant Island is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Mothra with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 7.722 billion Infant Islanders are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lepidopterra Regency. The average income tax rate is 76.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Infant Islandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,206 trillion pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 156,278 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Spies caught red-handed are served cocktails on their first-class flights home, feuilletons can only be deciphered with a Galliennais dictionary, there's nothing special about Mothra, and weird kids who eat bugs are breaking the law. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Infant Island's national animal is the fairy moth, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

The Infant Island is ranked 3,364th in the world and 1st in Runcina ex Praegrandis Entia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 127 law-abiding acts per hour.
