The Incorporated States of New Jalpa is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Jalpa with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 9.083 billion New Jalpans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jalpa City. The average income tax rate is 61.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong New Jalpan economy, worth 705 trillion Jalps a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,629 Jalps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Going on a diet invalidates your passport, demand for night vision goggles and boat engine mufflers has spiked, turnstile jumpers grow up to be tax cheats, and hospitals are amongst the best-funded in the region. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Jalpa's national animal is the Blue-Headed Monkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Jalpa is ranked 12,834^th in the world and 3^rd in Eurasia Pacific for Safest, scoring 118.13 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
