The Loving Couple of IShip It is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Queen with an iron fist, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, infamous sell-swords, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 11.489 billion IShip Itians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Castle. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 82.6%.

The frighteningly efficient IShip Itian economy, worth a remarkable 1,631 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 142,043 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.7 times as much as the poorest.

Children listen incredulously when their grandparents explain what a "running river" is, psychiatrists bizarrely accompany Queen to meetings with foreign heads of state, boom-and-bust cycles are being peddled as economically inevitable, and organised crime is fine as long as there's a well-organised tax return. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. IShip It's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cards.

IShip It is ranked 10,426^th in the world and 1^st in Slavija for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 6,593.72 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
