The United States of Janinia is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 20.642 billion Janinians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Janinian economy, worth 520 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 25,217 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, military funding has been stripped back, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Janinia's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Janinia is ranked 174,045^th in the world and 12^th in New Zealand for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 492.56 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
