The August Bastion of Jaegerpondonia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Jaeger Sylva with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 4.668 billion Jaegerpondonians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sylvania. The average income tax rate is 31.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Jaegerpondonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,061 trillion bits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 227,351 bits, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

Soldiers' positions are given away by the glint of their bayonets, Jaeger Sylva shrugs in the face of growing inequalities, unshaven men are viewed with suspicion in courts of law, and roadside walls are being built and mother nature is paying for it. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jaegerpondonia's national animal is the Earth Pony, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Invisible Pink Unicornism.

Jaegerpondonia is ranked 35,549^th in the world and 332^nd in 10000 Islands for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 5,690.94 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
