The Glorious Holy Divine Empire of Jaoheah is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by God-Emperor Jaoheah with an iron fist, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, lack of airports, and labour-free parental leave. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 13.002 billion Jaoheahians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jaoheahia. The average income tax rate is 97.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Jaoheahian economy, worth a remarkable 6,670 trillion Jaos 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. 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 a breathtaking 513,068 Jaos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,906,902 per year while the poor average 96,997, a ratio of 19.7 to 1.
Collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise, friendly fire incidents usually result in severe burns, atheists on vacation find Imperial Cult of Jaoheah's scriptures make useful doorstops, and heavily-armed commandos play rock-paper-scissors over whether to execute criminals and foreign visitors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jaoheah's national animal is the Crumple-Horned Snorkack, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Imperial Cult of Jaoheah.
Jaoheah is ranked 286,467th in the world and 1st in Jaoheah for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 11,287.5 Standard Monetary Units.
