The United Federation of Joodey is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its smutty television, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.366 billion Joods enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yxburg. The average income tax rate is 83.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Joodish economy, worth 722 trillion Jeeds a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 69,729 Jeeds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's war memorials are being torn down and replaced with peace gardens, cars speed down national highways while drivers sleep at the wheel, tradesmen will knock 10% off their fees if customers pay cash, and the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Joodey's national animal is the Unicorn, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Joodey is ranked 105,970^th in the world and 2,376^th in The North Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 415 billion Standard Monetary Units.
