The Democratic People's Republic of Jefghanistan is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by The Jeff with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 9.754 billion Jefghanistanians 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 minute, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jeffriapolis. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Jefghanistanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,953 trillion Manual Labor Hours a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 302,837 Manual Labor Hours, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,526,165 per year while the poor average 7,131, a ratio of 354 to 1.

Jefghanistanians incessantly needle their doctors for relief, wanting a better life for your child is prohibited by a clause in the criminal code, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, and government agents scour baking periodicals for subversive recipes. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Jefghanistan's national animal is the Cockroach, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Church of Jeff of Latter Day Saints.

Jefghanistan is ranked 200,513th in the world and 5,023rd in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 46.84148391032 days.
