The Republic of Jquaxia is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, national health service, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.005 billion Jquaxians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 81.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Jquaxian economy, worth 73.7 trillion Ducats a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Tourism, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 73,357 Ducats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Businesses are abandoning the city centre because of the lack of transport connections, shady doctors seem to have impeccable records, employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams, and Leader has been known to make speeches in fishing waders. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jquaxia's national animal is the Pygmy Marmoset , which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jquaxia is ranked 30,491^st in the world and 1,501^st in the South Pacific for Most Income Equality, scoring 71.21 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
