The Holy Blue Republic of Jesus Lays is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Yodle with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, prohibition of alcohol, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, devout population of 10.303 billion Jesus Laysians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yodle City. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jesus Laysian economy, worth 964 trillion Gold Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is 93,573 Gold Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Embittered former nobles desperately try to cling on to their noblesse oblige and their heads, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, government bureaucrats shut down teenage yard-raking businesses for being counter-revolutionary, and politicians can't accept birthday presents from their own children. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jesus Lays's national animal is the Zombie, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Yodlism.

Jesus Lays is ranked 23,771^st in the world and 66^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,061.82 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
