The Confederacy of James-Longstreet is a huge, pleasant nation, remarkable for its frequent executions and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 302 million James-Longstreetians 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 Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 22.6%.

The James-Longstreetian economy, worth 13.1 trillion CS dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 43,236 CS dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Rural communities are all but disenfranchised as politicians focus all their attention on winning the deciding urban votes, homeless people dying of starvation are thought to be a necessary cost of preventing terrorism, rugby players that knock each other over always stop to make sure the other fellow is okay, and eminent domain has been abolished. Crime is moderate. James-Longstreet's national animal is the Old war horse, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

James-Longstreet is ranked 87,722^nd in the world and 2,782^nd in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 889.98 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
