The Empire of James the Butler is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by James I with a fair hand, and renowned for its burgeoning lion population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 20.946 billion Butlers enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The medium-sized, pro-business government prioritizes Education, although Welfare, Spirituality, and Healthcare are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Manor. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.3%.

The very strong Jamesian economy, worth 966 trillion Pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 46,119 Pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 140,886 per year while the poor average 11,702, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, Butlerism has been named as James the Butler's national religion, James the Butler has designated The Manor as its capital city, and James I has just been declared ruler of James the Butler in an international press conference. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. James the Butler's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Butlerism.

James the Butler is ranked 241,765^th in the world and 3^rd in The New Dogecoin Union for Lowest Crime Rates, with 54.19 law-abiding acts per hour.
