The Federal Republic of Izern 211 is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.278 billion Izern 211ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important, while International Aid isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 59.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Izern 211ian economy, worth 137 trillion monies 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 slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. 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 107,437 monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, only those who apply can study applied maths, calling dibs is an unalienable right, and tree farms across the nation are overrun by clipboard-wielding biologists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Izern 211's national animal is the card, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Izern 211 is ranked 50,674^th in the world and 192^nd in Izern for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,932.1 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
