The Jedi Theocracy of Ben Kenobi is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Arthur Ben Kenobi with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, public floggings, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 10.845 billion Scottish Jedi have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jedinburgh. The average income tax rate is 55.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Jedi Scottish economy, worth 473 trillion Galactic Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,680 Galactic Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Organ donation rates have hit a new low, coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, inter-species marriages are ignored by the government, and ships no longer sail as no one wants to encounter Jedi Scottish pirates. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ben Kenobi's national animal is the Droids, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ben Kenobi is ranked 187,145th in the world and 5th in United Galactic Republic for Most Corrupt Governments, with 2.12 kickbacks per hour.
