The Jingoistic States of Jjustice is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, public floggings, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.069 billion Jjusticeans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 39.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Jjusticean economy, worth a remarkable 1,065 trillion pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 261,951 pesos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 822,748 per year while the poor average 63,858, a ratio of 12.9 to 1.

Pilots always remember to send their doctors a Maxxmas card, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, children wondering what happens to pets after they die are shown where the compost heap is, and photographers have to apply for a license to photograph Leader. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jjustice's national animal is the bison, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Jjustice is ranked 76,269th in the world and 2,997th in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,201.94 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
