The Occidental People's Republic of Josepania is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by El Presidente Jose David Costantino with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, unlimited-speed roads, and compulsory vegetarianism. The compassionate, humorless population of 28.332 billion Josepanians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Palmira. The average income tax rate is 67.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Josepanian economy, worth a remarkable 7,918 trillion gold pesos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 279,480 gold pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, extreme political groups are outlawed, major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, and hockey players who drop their gloves discard them on abandoned baseball mitts. Crime is totally unknown. Josepania's national animal is the seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Communionist Liberationist Catholicism.

Josepania is ranked 125,538^th in the world and 633^rd in Europe for Most Corrupt Governments, with 6.66 kickbacks per hour.
