Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Madness Realm of Jagada is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Baltmer with a fair hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 13.977 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Religion & Spirituality and the Environment are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Belvieu. The average income tax rate is 7%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing industries.

The nation is famous for having one of the world's largest red dragon hunting institutions, a crusade against barbaric religious practices has begun, Jagada-made cars tend to catch fire in people's driveways, and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Jagada's national animal is the red dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the icon.

Jagada is ranked 42nd in Gholgoth and 78,700th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
