The Federal Republic of Republic of JB is a very large, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 258 million Republic of JBians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.0%.

The thriving Republic of JBian economy, worth 19.2 trillion JBS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 74,252 JBS, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 264,404 per year while the poor average 15,007, a ratio of 17.6 to 1.

Cash-strapped junkies lick rabbits for a cheap high, chalkboards are replaced with billboards in the classroom, Leader's new android secretary is the latest media darling, and laborers are building walls and making Wezeltonia pay for it. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republic of JB's national animal is the White Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Republic of JB is ranked 293,932^nd in the world and 2,703^rd in The North Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 31.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
