The Supreme Dictatorship of The Iron League is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Supreme Universal Ruler with an iron fist, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, sprawling nuclear power plants, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 44.269 billion Iron Leaguerans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The minute, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Iron League City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Iron Leaguer economy, worth an astonishing 31,029 trillion gils a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is a breathtaking 700,937 gils, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 4,432,202 per year while the poor average 46,264, a ratio of 95.8 to 1.

Competing private ambulances racing to be the first to traffic accidents are a major cause of road accidents, shivering secretaries type letters under torrential downpours in open-roof offices, drivers regularly pull over for nonexistent police cars, and organised sports are frowned upon as frivolous. 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 League's national animal is the lueshi, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Supreme Universal Rulerism.

The Iron League is ranked 300,626th in the world and 1st in Supremacy for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 5.33 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
