The Theocracy of Joe McFlo is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Joe McFlo with a fair hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.341 billion Joe McFloists are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Joetown. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Joe McFloan economy, worth 334 trillion wheats 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 Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 100,020 wheats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Populations of two-headed pigs have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites, handling people's data is proving an immersive experience, no one is quite sure what many government officials look like, and retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Joe McFlo's national animal is the pig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Joe McFloism.

Joe McFlo is ranked 42,439th in the world and 40th in Socialists for Lowest Crime Rates, with 76.81 law-abiding acts per hour.
