The Democratic States of The Japanese states is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The National Diet of the Left with a fair hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 14.498 billion Japanese 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tokyo. The average income tax rate is 94.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Japanese economy, worth a remarkable 2,098 trillion Yen a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 144,711 Yen, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions, children's TV shows are having a gay old time, artists are renowned for their ability to make art pieces out of thin air, and The National Diet of the Left's campaign events reach their climax when the celebrity endorsers reveal themselves. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Japanese states's national animal is the Japanese hare, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Japanese states is ranked 6,935^th in the world and 359^th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 142 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
