The Principality of Jadeo is a mammoth, efficient nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 7.922 billion Jadeoans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Environment. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.7%.

The very strong Jadeoan economy, worth 349 trillion marks a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 44,161 marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 131,307 per year while the poor average 11,644, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

The new airport at Mr. Giles' farm is panicking his sheep, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, euthanasia is legal, and cars are banned. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Jadeo's national animal is the emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jadeo is ranked 143,229^th in the world and 1^st in Bonk for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,689.19 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
