The Territory of Ivroa is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 16.168 billion Ivroans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The tiny, moralistic, pro-business government prioritizes Law & Order, with Defense and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.6%.
The thriving Ivroan economy, worth 809 trillion tundra saars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 50,084 tundra saars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 237,636 per year while the poor average 6,229, a ratio of 38.1 to 1.
The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, a dictator has seized power and outlawed elections, the government is cutting back on the number of political prisoners executed each year, and most of the military's funding goes into researching space-age weaponry. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Ivroa's national animal is the tundra leopard, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Ivroa is ranked 152,732nd in the world and 3rd in Black Bear for Safest, scoring 58.72 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
