The Armed Republic of The Free Republic of Japan is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Overlord Jeri with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, fear of technology, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.123 billion Japanians 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 prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Environment and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Tokyo. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 54.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Japanian economy, worth 866 trillion Japan Standard Dollars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 169,117 Japan Standard Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 502,098 per year while the poor average 44,686, a ratio of 11.2 to 1.

Royalist is the most offensive slur in the Japanian language, panels from bankrupt rooftop solar companies are used as props for sci-fi B-movies, cars speed down national highways while drivers sleep at the wheel, and government officials are phoning up good-looking celebrities to say they want to breed with them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Free Republic of Japan's national animal is the Capybara, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Jeriism.

The Free Republic of Japan is ranked 288,972^nd in the world and 5,114^th in The East Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 3.66 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
