The Commonwealth of Jkqnisyan is a massive, genial nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.719 billion Jkqns are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 75.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Jkqnian economy, worth 97.1 trillion shells a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 35,700 shells, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It takes months to get the proper permits for a child's first tricycle, public projects are synonymous with yawn-inducing conformity, the volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, and re-education centers are being added to most prisons. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jkqnisyan's national animal is the badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jkqnisyan is ranked 145,376th in the world and 444th in 10000 Islands for Most Stationary, with 178.84046193092 days.
