The Antarctica Founders of Joop is a gargantuan, economically powerful nation, ruled by Joop Polarbear with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 13.558 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, liberal individuals juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Commerce. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Icetown. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.
Joop's Medieval Faire is renowned as one of the best in the region, major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and space research funding has hit a recent high while several military bases are being closed down. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is a serious problem. Joop's national animal is the Polar Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Atheism, and its currency is the Polar Crown.
Joop is ranked 59th in the region and 51,565th in the world for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector.
