The Empire of Jyggalag is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Jyggalag with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, parental licensing program, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 16.92 billion Jyggalagians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jyggalag City. The average income tax rate is 87.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jyggalagian economy, worth a remarkable 8,562 trillion Septims a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 506,076 Septims, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

A government program is underway to revitalize Jyggalag's beaches, mums always ask their three-year-olds for permission before hugging them, homes have been banned from having any more than one wheel, and mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Jyggalag's national animal is the Baliwog, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Jyggalag is ranked 1,376th in the world and 53rd in Osiris for Most Corrupt Governments, with 421 kickbacks per hour.
