The Divine Spirit of Junko- is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Junko with an iron fist, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, flagrant waste-dumping, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.132 billion Jigokuans 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tōgane. The average income tax rate is 99.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Jigokuan economy, worth a remarkable 3,056 trillion planetcoins a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 375,907 planetcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's secret service is so secret that nobody knows if it has one, shaken martini sales have soared in nations surrounding Junko-, Jigokuan police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, and airplanes have giant grilles on their noses to knock drones out of their path. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Junko-'s national animal is the fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Junko- is ranked 68,074th in the world and 25th in Link to the FUTURE for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,519 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
