The Technocratic United Kingdom of Jarian is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Delta the Wise with a fair hand, and renowned for its compulsory vegetarianism, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 12.923 billion Jarianites enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Akiba. The average income tax rate is 94.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jarianite economy, worth a remarkable 3,376 trillion Jaris 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 a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology and Arms Manufacturing. 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 261,280 Jaris, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The new Jarianite-made OS is buggier and more inconvenient than a horse-drawn carriage, children dream of becoming physicians and physicists, criminals always seem to be forewarned of police raids, and politicians frequently make unusual poses during speeches in hopes of inspiring the next internet fad. Crime is totally unknown. Jarian's national animal is the Android, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Science.

Jarian is ranked 148,490th in the world and 1st in AnimeGirls for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 751.81 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
