The Pink Luck Casinozed Easter of Jackpotia is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Kinji Hakari with a fair hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, triple-decker prams, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 4.61 billion Jackpotians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Defense and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Vegas. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Jackpotian economy, worth 750 trillion Gold Bars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 162,849 Gold Bars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 829,538 per year while the poor average 17,644, a ratio of 47.0 to 1.

Street gangs rule most of the nation's major cities, it's a comma comma comma comma comma rebellion, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, and chocolate in Jackpotia has its flavour enhanced by the salty tears of enslaved factory workers. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Jackpotia's national animal is the Millionaire, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Gambling Spirit.

Jackpotia is ranked 331,563rd in the world and 50th in Mitteleuropa for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 1.59 Effective Tax Rate.
