The Katechon of Holy State of Jerusalem is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Crusader King Jebvs Seymour Theostalto with an iron fist, and notable for its ban on automobiles, avant-garde cinema, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.997 billion Outremarines are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hierosilmae-Montgisard. The average income tax rate is 99.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Outremer economy, worth a remarkable 1,395 trillion Byzantine Shekels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 279,313 Byzantine Shekels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Breaking rocks in the hot sun now involves using your head, the government is said to have a martyrdom complex, the nation has unofficially betrayed its values, and police pull people off the street for even mentioning the word plane. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy State of Jerusalem's national animal is the Goy, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Ghibeline Orthodoxy.

Holy State of Jerusalem is ranked 24,727^th in the world and 12^th in Der Leibwache for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 277.7 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
