The Republic of Jensen Button is a tiny, safe nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, compulsory gun ownership, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, democratic population of 18 million Jensen Buttonians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 26.8%.

The Jensen Buttonian economy, worth 829 billion dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 46,104 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Old people living in plastic bubbles complain about a new type of social isolation, students can name the chiefs of proto-Bigtopian tribes before they can count to ten, there are increasing complaints that male AI assistants have aggressive voices, and young girls aren't having a ball but they are enjoying themselves. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jensen Button's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Jensen Button is ranked 305,183^rd in the world and 2^nd in World Endurance Championship for Largest Black Market, with 13.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
