The Iorisenial Isles of Ioresca is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Lumuosni Ray with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.322 billion Iorescans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blumisetris. The average income tax rate is 93.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ioresh economy, worth 401 trillion prayats a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 172,977 prayats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians have seen a significant reduction in followers on their social media accounts, millions of Iorescans are excellent swimmers, the ruling party has a devil of a time keeping order in the ranks, and graffiti graces every city's streets. Crime is totally unknown. Ioresca's national animal is the Ioresh Sheep, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Erutanism.

Ioresca is ranked 309,642^nd in the world and 4,348^th in The North Pacific for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -8.53 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
