The State of JL is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working population of 12.256 billion JLians 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 Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Central Heights. The average income tax rate is 17.6%.

The JLian economy, worth 561 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Information Technology. Average income is 45,839 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, and JL has designated Central Heights as its capital city. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. JL's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

JL is ranked 139,030^th in the world and 172^nd in Omega Prime for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 37,771.48 Standard Monetary Units.
