The Grand power of Jokesters is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Marc Fallon with an iron fist, and remarkable for its smutty television, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.937 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, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Welfare and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bunker 77. The average income tax rate is 80.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jokestersian economy, worth a remarkable 1,982 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 333,902 Denarii, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The Police Surveillance Unit's motto is "Gotta Catch 'Em All", the nation's new Mylab space station is notorious for being the loneliest place above the planet, policemen regularly conduct midnight raids on closed donut shops to 'collect evidence', and the military is plagued with unethical researchers. 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 204,383^rd in the world and 7,464^th in the Pacific for Safest, scoring 5.84 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
