The Peanut Butter of Jif is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, ban on automobiles, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, devout population of 4.732 billion Jifians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 36.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Jifian economy, worth 347 trillion peanut butters a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,453 peanut butters, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", patriots insist that size does matter, the combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage, and citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jif's national animal is the peanut butter.

Jif is ranked 36,847^th in the world and 1^st in Free United States for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,371.83 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
