The Dominion of PapaJacky is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by High Lord and Supreme Baron PapaJacky with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 23.473 billion Jackens love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grainville. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient PapaJackyian economy, worth an astonishing 10,842 trillion Loaves a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 461,897 Loaves, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A death threat has replaced 'hello' as an official greeting in the nation, the sound of wooden legs echo throughout PapaJacky after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, and the nation's taxpayers pay for foreign governments' extravagances. Crime is totally unknown. PapaJacky's national animal is the Pig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lovetism.

PapaJacky is ranked 8th in the world and 1st in Papastan for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 69,422.55 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
