The Loving Couple of I Ship-It is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Frank with an even hand, and renowned for its enslaved workforce, ban on automobiles, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 11.387 billion I Ship-Itians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chicago. The average income tax rate is 68.4%.

The frighteningly efficient I Ship-Itian economy, worth a remarkable 1,511 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 132,702 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Some magnifier-wielding I Ship-Itians say Frank seems a little lacking in something, heartbroken parents are urged to "smile for the camera", sexuality-questioning teenagers are placed in locked rooms with dirty magazines and lewd posters, and religious bigotry is not allowed but bigotry against theism is encouraged. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. I Ship-It's national animal is the dove, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Cards.

I Ship-It is ranked 129,634th in the world and 2nd in Chicago for Safest, scoring 71.23 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
