The Republic of Jade53 is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its burgeoning kangaroo population. The hard-working population of 1.382 billion Jade53ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 25.2%.

The Jade53ian economy, worth 52.2 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Book Publishing. Average income is 37,780 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate. Jade53's national animal is the kangaroo.

Jade53 is ranked 301,848^th in the world and 1,495^th in the Plains of Perdition for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 952.62 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
