The Jaramian Federation of Hatterland is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Adil Jelal Al-Haik with an iron fist, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, anti-smoking policies, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.507 billion Jaramians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Terhat Tyci. The average income tax rate is 75.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Jaramian economy, worth 382 trillion qimas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 152,566 qimas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, the caged-bird trade is singing, the government is crossing the Rubicon in its levels of corruption, and the government seizes all major gold finds. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hatterland's national animal is the common fire orb, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Islam.

Hatterland is ranked 21,945^th in the world and 480^th in the Rejected Realms for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 7,661.52 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
