The People's Republic of Joviekistan is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 381 million Joviekistanians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 48.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Joviekistanian economy, worth 13.0 trillion kronor a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Pizza Delivery, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,145 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

National parks have long lines of different gender-specific 'Porta-Pottys', grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly, Joviekistan has designated Joviekistan City as its capital city, and citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Joviekistan's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Joviekistan is ranked 277,502nd in the world and 5,845th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -11.38 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
