The Jyezet of Jyezet is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Big tobacco with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 8.216 billion Jyezetians 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, is effectively ruled by the Department of Industry, with Law & Order and Environment not funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brokolyn. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Jyezetian economy, worth a remarkable 1,378 trillion Cards a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 167,761 Cards, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,518,866 per year while the poor average 2,195, a ratio of 691 to 1.

The country is at the forefront of a 'peacekeeping' mission to secure power plants in war-torn Maxtopia, the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Brokolyn, official government guidance encourages binge behaviors, and the government regularly crumbles under the pressure of terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Jyezet's national animal is the SFB, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Safberdism.

Jyezet is ranked 100,886th in the world and 1st in Three Guys for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 61.33 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
