The Republic of Izern 120 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its public floggings, enslaved workforce, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The cynical, devout population of 1.821 billion Izern 120ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 47.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Izern 120ian economy, worth 179 trillion florins a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,399 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, starving citizens are offered nuclear pasta, the nation has always been at war with Bigtopia, and pallbearers at military funerals dive for cover when they hear the three-volley salute. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Izern 120's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Izern 120 is ranked 66,484^th in the world and 238^th in Izern for Highest Average Incomes, with 98,399.33 Standard Monetary Units.
