The Queendom of Iconoclassism is a huge, genial nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 568 million Iconoclassismians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 82.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Iconoclassismian economy, worth 16.4 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 28,827 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Old people living in plastic bubbles complain about a new type of social isolation, weird kids who eat bugs are breaking the law, vaccinations are mandatory, and the government is spending millions on alternative clean-burning fuels. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Iconoclassism's national animal is the Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Iconoclassism is ranked 319,307th in the world and 4,179th in The East Pacific for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 97.95 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
