The Satanic Worshippers of Junkyland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ozzy Osbourne with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 31.976 billion Junkies hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, although Healthcare, Environment, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of OZZfest. The average income tax rate is 93.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Junk economy, worth a remarkable 5,555 trillion nibs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 173,736 nibs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, Ozzy Osbourne's peyote-induced "let's all just be friends" speech is trending world-wide, and all recreational drugs are legal. Crime is totally unknown. Junkyland's national animal is the vampire bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Ozzism.

Junkyland is ranked 289,493rd in the world and 22nd in Ozzy for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -17.06 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
