The Empire of Jup1ter is a very large, orderly nation, renowned for its avant-garde cinema, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 252 million Jupiterians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 53.4%.

The sizeable but inefficient Jupiterian economy, worth 9.52 trillion Gases a year, is quite specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Soda Sales, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 37,780 Gases, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool, the mark of a good ruler is the largeness of his chin, the mouth-frothing Jupiterian can be confused for a rabid Jupiter being a bozo, and daisy chain gangs plant flowers and pick up litter. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jup1ter's national animal is the Jupiter being a bozo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jup1ter is ranked 235,865^th in the world and 4^th in Newleaf for Most Developed, scoring 52.3 on the Human Development Index.
