The Dominion of Ichoitia is a mid-sized, orderly nation, notable for its pith helmet sales, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 56 million Ichoitii are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Law & Order, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The powerhouse Ichoiti economy, worth 5.20 trillion Markas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. Average income is 92,906 Markas, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 764,508 per year while the poor average 2,357, a ratio of 324 to 1.

The government prides itself on being smug and condescending to idiots, corporations cut costs by taking away safety-features on their products, 90% of active duty IAF personnel have been laid off and replaced by robot kill-drones, and graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation'. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Ichoitia's national animal is the Desert Horned Serpent, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ichoitia is ranked 96,592nd in the world and 5th in Enowiden for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,405.87 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
