The Twisted Mind of TheJasoMaster is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by The First One with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, aversion to nipples, and soft-spoken computers. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 22.978 billion Jason Clones are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jatopia. The average income tax rate is 96.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Jaso economy, worth a remarkable 6,198 trillion Bucks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Information Technology and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 269,742 Bucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government considers it a sacred duty to video bikini-clad beach swimmers, AI citizens are criticized for being robotic, sales of trenchcoats are on the rise, and bicyclists are banned from major roads. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TheJasoMaster's national animal is the Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is the Path of Jason.

TheJasoMaster is ranked 9,973rd in the world and 1st in Land of Turtles for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 5,540.43 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
