The Republic of Jrustela is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Arch-Duke with a fair hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 6.178 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although Public Transport and Law & Order are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hathinelthor. The average income tax rate is 16%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news, the military frequently holds bake sales to raise funds, organised sports are frowned upon as frivolous, and the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jrustela's national animal is the Head-Shagging Parrot, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Stacu.

Jrustela is ranked 65th in The East Pacific and 2,883rd in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 7 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
