The Republic of Jelewland is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by A G with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, complete lack of prisons, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 15.715 billion Jelewlandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government is primarily concerned with Education, with Healthcare, Industry, and Environment also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arcadia. The average income tax rate is 90.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jelewlandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,263 trillion Dens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 144,041 Dens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Young people suspect their parents might be a little bit stupid, parents dread their examinations more than their children, visiting dignitaries make excuses to leave functions early and head to the nearest pub, and a child's only Trickster Night scare is the sight of their parents dancing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jelewland's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jelewland is ranked 281,713th in the world and 9,841st in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 5.91976704468 days.
