The Queen's State of JD is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its complete lack of public education, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 17.821 billion JDians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.6%.

The very strong JDian economy, worth 538 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Furniture Restoration, and Soda Sales. Average income is 30,189 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 205,251 per year while the poor average 1,622, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The government is avowedly atheist, voting is voluntary, and JD has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. JD's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

JD is ranked 119,464th in the world and 88th in Omega Prime for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 977.64 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
