The Dominion of PapaJacky is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by High Lord and Supreme Baron PapaJacky with a fair hand, and notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 23.455 billion Jackens are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grainville. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient PapaJackyian economy, worth an astonishing 10,820 trillion Loaves 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 mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 461,340 Loaves, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lifelong celibates are surprised to receive government-issue condoms in the post, they say that Jackens made a dessert and called it peace, companies struggle to cover for the hordes of employees on parental leave, and families make most of their annual income from government benefits. Crime is totally unknown. PapaJacky's national animal is the Pig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lovetism.

PapaJacky is ranked 269,414th in the world and 3rd in Papastan for Most Conservative, scoring 32.75 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
