The Nation of Initia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by the King of Initia with an even hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, sprawling nuclear power plants, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 1.965 billion Initians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kapori. The average income tax rate is 72.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Initian economy, worth 117 trillion gems a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 59,911 gems, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The government raises tariffs on a weekly basis, female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast, lobbyists are trying to convince government to recategorize most natural disasters as "non-critical naturogenic inconveniences", and frequent flyers are chiseled into statues. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Initia's national animal is the chickadee, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Initia is ranked 232,753^rd in the world and 1^st in Initian Islands for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -2.9 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
