The State of James Cockburn is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 15.307 billion James Cockburnians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.4%.

The very strong James Cockburnian economy, worth 926 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 60,556 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 184,987 per year while the poor average 15,365, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, and James Cockburn has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. James Cockburn's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

James Cockburn is ranked 58,880th in the world and 7th in Johannesburg for Most Stationary, with 779.0478694646 days.
