The Jingoistic States of Jocol is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 81 million Jocolese are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order and Spirituality are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.

The strong Jocolese economy, worth 4.32 trillion finds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Woodchip Exports, and Trout Farming. Average income is 53,317 finds, with the richest citizens earning 7.8 times as much as the poorest.

Jocol's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, euthanasia is illegal, gambling is outlawed, and Animal Liberationists are regularly arrested. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Jocol's national animal is the bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Jocol is ranked 215,738^th in the world and 5,384^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 29.57 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
