The Draconian Kingdom of Jade Panther is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Serpentine Mouser with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.07 billion Jade Panthers enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Leviathan Fjord. The average income tax rate is 75.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jade Panther economy, worth a remarkable 1,243 trillion pantheras a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 137,106 pantheras, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Students abandon classrooms for online education, witnesses have to run a gauntlet of mob enforcers to testify at trials, listless juries are assembled for the simplest of court cases, and police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jade Panther's national animal is the Dragon Panther, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cathay Rites.

Jade Panther is ranked 288,282^nd in the world and 35^th in Pantherine for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.44 kickbacks per hour.
