The United Socialist States of Bluejam is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Asahi CHAN with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.733 billion Bluejamians 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 Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Liscau am Rheinus. The average income tax rate is 86.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bluejamian economy, worth 246 trillion MOPS a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 142,077 MOPS, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nearby bird nests prompt wind turbine shutdowns, it is impossible to get any work done as auditors swarm every inch of government factories and mines, undergrads find their professors' mushroom experiments less psychedelic than expected, and recent protests against birds flying too low have resulted in bloodshed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bluejam's national animal is the Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bluejam is ranked 6,211^th in the world and 192^nd in the South Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 41.2 average smiles per day.
