The Idiotic Cesspool of Juristonia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Juri with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 30.104 billion Juristonians 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 large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Policy, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Juritopia. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.
The thriving Juristonian economy, worth a remarkable 7,226 trillion Dust Bunnies a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 240,047 Dust Bunnies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The acceptance of acupuncture and other alternative therapies has needled the scientific community, the housing market has collapsed like an overbaked Brancalandian souffle, Juristonia's heavy congestion charges are the bane of motorists' lives, and the Museum of Blackacrean War Crimes is located on "Blackacre Did Nothing Wrong Avenue". Crime is totally unknown. Juristonia's national animal is the Human, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Juristonia is ranked 9,974th in the world and 3rd in Nederland for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 398.81 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
