The Democratic Empire of Junastria is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Dr Junayd Abid Ahmed with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, unlimited-speed roads, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 22.979 billion Junastrians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Javenor. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Junastrian economy, worth a remarkable 3,204 trillion Shyers a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 139,437 Shyers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dozens of additional foreign policy specialists have been sent to the country's WA Mission, military equipment is being auctioned off to extend comatose centenarians' lives, online terrorists are automatically assigned adverts for cheap balaclavas, and artificial intelligences seeking exciting work are overcome with ennui. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Junastria's national animal is the Centaur, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Humanity.

Junastria is ranked 11,230^th in the world and 1^st in The New Storm for Most Cultured, scoring 113 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
