The Woodhouse Sanctum of Joveia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 24.58 billion Joveians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 67.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Joveian economy, worth a remarkable 1,456 trillion $$s a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 59,259 $$s, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Maximum security fish farms leave caged salmon pining for the fjords, prisons are filled with the cackles and sobs of a deranged inmate population, Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, and former bars are desperately trying to re-brand themselves as cafés. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Joveia's national animal is the ^-^.

Joveia is ranked 114,198th in the world and 1st in Il Duce for Most Stationary, with 339.59323404908 days.
