The Republic of Isachile Tum is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Desya Kuznetsov with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, unlimited-speed roads, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate population of 7.712 billion Isachile Tumians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jukropo. The average income tax rate is 90.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Isachile Tumian economy, worth a remarkable 1,077 trillion Zelonings a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 139,689 Zelonings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreigners "adopt" rotund Gulls to line the pockets of wildlife sanctuaries, clairvoyants and soothsayers find fellowship at their local McRonalds, the Isachile Tumian government is the world's largest NGO, and the military's newest anti-tank strategy is throwing a landmine like a frisbee. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Isachile Tum's national animal is the Gull, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Isachile Tum is ranked 8,133^rd in the world and 133^rd in the West Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 125 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
