The Dictatorship of Jazoosheopia is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, parental licensing program, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 896 million Jazoosheopians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.8%.

The very strong Jazoosheopian economy, worth 47.7 trillion human fingers a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 53,232 human fingers, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 175,430 per year while the poor average 12,094, a ratio of 14.5 to 1.

Harry Potter books are banned, people are often woken up by rubbish music, foreign leaders' Twitcher accounts are monitored for potential threats to national security, and men who wear pink are seen as dangerously unmanly. Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Jazoosheopia's national animal is the Mole rat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Jazoosheopia is ranked 251,336th in the world and 1,157th in Europeia for Most Beautiful Environments, with 223.13 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
