The Imperial Empire of Great Jameston is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by King James III with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 4.72 billion Jamestons are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mount Vincent. The average income tax rate is 42.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jamestonion economy, worth 720 trillion Kraticas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 152,678 Kraticas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Undersea volcanoes receive strongly worded letters for violating environmental regulations, the nation is going green, the death penalty has been reintroduced, and rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Great Jameston's national animal is the Emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Great Jameston is ranked 83,501^st in the world and 1,020^th in the West Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,608.14 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
