The Cerata vassal of Jude s is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by governor Eddie wiff with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 7.052 billion judeslan are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of constan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 28.4%.

The frighteningly efficient judeslan economy, worth a remarkable 1,028 trillion Solaris 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. 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 impressive 145,827 Solaris, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 436,178 per year while the poor average 38,129, a ratio of 11.4 to 1.

The Jude s Enquirer offers weekly cash prizes for 'most blasphemous song, story, or cartoon', student exchange programs are in trouble as everyone wants to leave but no-one wants to come, food voucher forgeries are causing headaches for the police, and executions often take hours as amateurs attempt to find veins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Jude s's national animal is the farven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is norse.

Jude s is ranked 17,969^th in the world and 20^th in Institute of Cellulose for Highest Food Quality, scoring 123.57 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
