The Republic of Izern 7 is a mammoth, safe nation, notable for its pith helmet sales, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.08 billion Izern 7ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 70.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Izern 7ian economy, worth 677 trillion dollars 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 133,304 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 396,359 per year while the poor average 35,149, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

Soldiers who shoot themselves in the foot are regarded as heroes, the most sacred right is the right to ignore the rights of slaves, every week is blindness awareness week, and comatose jurors are the defense's favorite. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Izern 7's national animal is the beaver, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Izern 7 is ranked 34,672^nd in the world and 6^th in Voidwolf for Highest Average Incomes, with 133,304.61 Standard Monetary Units.
