The Republic of Izern 121 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.812 billion Izern 121ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 55.7%.

The powerhouse Izern 121ian economy, worth 187 trillion florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 103,426 florins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 303,473 per year while the poor average 27,786, a ratio of 10.9 to 1.

Nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, and handling people's data is proving an immersive experience. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Izern 121's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Izern 121 is ranked 131,376th in the world and 166th in Izern for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 828.61 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
