The Republic of Izern 75 is a colossal, genial nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, enslaved workforce, and parental licensing program. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.751 billion Izern 75ians 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, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Izern 75ian economy, worth 347 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. 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 126,487 florins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 358,054 per year while the poor average 35,729, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.

The government is flooded with compensation requests, the rich are once again pinching pennies, people who eat pizza with lactase supplements are arrested by the flavour police, and Izern 75 Barrier Island residents anxiously await their 'Bridge to Somewhere'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Izern 75's national animal is the penguin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Izern 75 is ranked 240,433rd in the world and 534th in Izern for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -5.42 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
