The Kingdom of Jackdawn is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 889 million Jackdawnians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tucanotins. The average income tax rate is 64.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jackdawnian economy, worth 105 trillion Grals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 118,927 Grals, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government guarantees that tourists will have the ultimate trip on their trips, t-shirts displaying a photo of Leader performing the Full-Monty are selling out, mining safety laws are often more expensive than what's being mined, and reassembling shredded papers is the highlight of a spy's day. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Jackdawn's national animal is the Bem te vi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jackdawn is ranked 128,740^th in the world and 476^th in The Frontier Sea for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,540.29 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
