The United States of Jdbld is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Joe Dannatt with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and national health service. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful, devout population of 9.254 billion Londs have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Parkgate. The average income tax rate is 93.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Londian economy, worth a remarkable 1,712 trillion BLDS a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 185,095 BLDS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, neighbourhood gossips whip up controversy about those receiving adult merchandise, census workers are having a hard time figuring out who is actually living in Jdbld after the ban on emigration was lifted, and cheese lovers have a case of the bleus. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jdbld's national animal is the Black Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Jdbld is ranked 1,259^th in the world and 50^th in Lazarus for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 129.93 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
