The State of Jarwanid is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 14.055 billion Jarwanidians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Education, Administration, and Defense are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. The average income tax rate is 68.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Jarwanidian economy, worth 245 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales. Average income is 17,436 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, grumbling early morning commuters bemoan having to travel to work in the dark, the nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist, and Jarwanid has designated Westminster as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jarwanid's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jarwanid is ranked 57,939th in the world and 86th in 0000 for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 535.47 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
