The Grand Corporation of The Iron Crown Order is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the CEO with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, public floggings, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 14.707 billion Corporation Employes 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 tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Charon Hive. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Iron Crown Orderian economy, worth a remarkable 6,355 trillion Marks of Credit a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 432,169 Marks of Credit, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Doctors are encouraged to 'pull the plug' any time the government has a budget crisis, more than one company makes the board game Monopoly, new urban roads are threatening city parks, and hit TV show 'The eXecution Factor' is a critical success. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. The Iron Crown Order's national animal is the Mythical Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Militant Atheism.

The Iron Crown Order is ranked 1,560^th in the world and 32^nd in 10000 Islands for Largest Retail Industry, scoring 31,506.45 on the Shrinkwrap Consignment Productivity Index.
