The Republic of I-520 is a titanic, safe nation, remarkable for its burgeoning driver population. The democratic population of 10.064 billion I-520ians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 25.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped I-520ian economy, worth 234 trillion cars a year, is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 23,271 cars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is well under control. I-520's national animal is the driver.

I-520 is ranked 56,373^rd in the world and 1^st in Interstate 520 for Least Corrupt Governments, with 93.73 percentage of bribes refused.
