The Rogue Nation of The Notorious Mad Jack is a titanic, socially progressive nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 17.079 billion Notorious Mad Jackians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 85.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Notorious Mad Jackian economy, worth a remarkable 2,261 trillion kronor a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 132,414 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is universally agreed that the first 31 issues are the only ones with humor and charm (The Notorious Mad Jack has found 2 easter eggs), romantic sunsets are no longer interrupted by explosions and monstrous roars, the government is spending millions on alternative clean-burning fuels, and three extra hay bales are rolled into The Notorious Mad Jack's gold vaults every year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Notorious Mad Jack's national animal is the cobra, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Notorious Mad Jack is ranked 19,713^th in the world and 1^st in Britannia Prima for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 311.75 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
