The Democratic Republic of JK-47 is a very large, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The quiet, industrious population of 312 million Usonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fargo. The average income tax rate is 57.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Usonian economy, worth 7.86 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 25,194 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Euthanasia is illegal, extreme political groups are outlawed, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and JK-47 has designated Fargo as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. JK-47's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

JK-47 is ranked 209,026^th in the world and 442^nd in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 160.54 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
