The Dormant Power of Jokesters is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Marc Fallon with an iron fist, and remarkable for its prohibition of alcohol, zero percent divorce rate, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.184 billion Jokestersians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bunker 77. The average income tax rate is 85.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Jokestersian economy, worth a remarkable 2,322 trillion Denarii a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 323,237 Denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
13-year-old internet trolls are treated as a threat on par with terrorists, space has been brought down to earth with constellations of cancer cases across Jokesters, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, and the military has gone fission for more funding. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jokesters's national animal is the Jaguar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Jokesters is ranked 1,620th in the world and 39th in the Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 323,237.13 Standard Monetary Units.
