The Free Land of Illuin is a mammoth, efficient nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, parental licensing program, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 8.913 billion Illuinians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.3%.

The thriving Illuinian economy, worth 736 trillion Randoms a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 82,647 Randoms, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 290,240 per year while the poor average 17,063, a ratio of 17.0 to 1.

Polygamy is legal, Pinkerton agents are called in to forcibly break up white collar strikes, Leader's exquisite office door is replaced monthly due to angry petitioners, and elderly prisoners with severe dementia are reminded hourly that they are evil people by helpful nurse-wardens. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Illuin's national animal is the Random, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Illuin is ranked 83,052^nd in the world and 10^th in Valandor for Largest Populations, with 8.91 billion capita.
