The District of Istlant is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Liard with a fair hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 20.319 billion Istlantians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.
The very strong Istlantian economy, worth 740 trillion aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Trout Farming. Average income is 36,465 aurums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 247,918 per year while the poor average 1,959, a ratio of 126 to 1.
The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, Istlant has designated District City as its capital city, Liard has just been declared ruler of Istlant in an international press conference, and the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Istlant's national animal is the bovina.
Istlant is ranked 40,348th in the world and 1st in Moroni for Most Primitive, scoring 62.05 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
