The Constitutional Monarchy of Jacobius is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 8.324 billion Jacobiusians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 75.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Jacobiusian economy, worth 891 trillion Big Bucks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 107,041 Big Bucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars, ignorance is considered a politically desirable quality, the dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu, and students consistently complain that the wi-fi ate their homework. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jacobius's national animal is the Unicorn, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
