The Constitutional Monarchy of Jamesburgh is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Queen Judith with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 38.926 billion Jacobites enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The tiny, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Highclere. The average income tax rate is 1.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jacobean economy, worth an astonishing 10,083 trillion Pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 259,035 Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crowds of flag-burning protesters tend to accidentally become crowds of burning protesters, extraordinary tribunals try accused financial criminals, the acceptance of acupuncture and other alternative therapies has needled the scientific community, and a lack of funding for new shows has turned television into 24/7 re-runs. Crime is almost non-existent. Jamesburgh's national animal is the Javelina, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Jamesburgh is ranked 175,824th in the world and 68th in Alcris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.31 law-abiding acts per hour.
