The Iorisenial Isles of Ioresca is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Lumuosni Ray with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, rampant corporate plagiarism, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.39 billion Iorescans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blumisetris. The average income tax rate is 94.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Ioresh economy, worth 424 trillion prayats a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 177,591 prayats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Civil engineers are undermining sinkholes, for the sake of 'public interest' news programs tell viewers how to home-make Sarin gas bombs, feeling like a winner comes at a price, and prankster scientists legally change their names to silly pseudonyms before major discoveries. Crime is totally unknown. Ioresca's national animal is the Ioresh Sheep, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Erutanism.

Ioresca is ranked 11,121st in the world and 247th in The North Pacific for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring 6 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
