The State of Irving Bell is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its restrictive gun laws and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 26.282 billion Irving Bellians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The medium-sized, moralistic government is effectively ruled by the Department of Industry, with Education also on the agenda, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.2%.

The powerhouse Irving Bellian economy, worth 640 trillion betales a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 24,377 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 70,600 per year while the poor average 6,670, a ratio of 10.6 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, and Irving Bell has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Irving Bell's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Irving Bell is ranked 52,605^th in the world and 2^nd in Dushanbe for Most Pacifist, with 102.98 cheeks turned per day.
