The Dictatorship of Jackonacka is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 7 million Jackonackans 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 large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 59.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Jackonackan economy, worth 287 billion Jackonaxes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 41,036 Jackonaxes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Advert breaks are played at lower volumes to make them easier to ignore, father-son fishing trips have been banned, hairdressers are forced to use all the tricks of the trade after citizens became required to wear helmets at all times, and the government invades its allies more than its enemies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jackonacka's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Jackonacka is ranked 171,252^nd in the world and 138^th in Britannia for Most Developed, scoring 54.61 on the Human Development Index.
