The Luminarch of Irenae is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 1.381 billion Irenaeans 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 medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 39.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Irenaean economy, worth 40.4 trillion irenions 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 slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. 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 29,247 irenions, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Surveillance cameras are banned, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and organ donation is compulsory. Crime is totally unknown. Irenae's national animal is the pegasus, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Irenae is ranked 245,936^th in the world and 466^th in Starlight for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -6.24 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
