The Republic of Jasice is a massive, safe nation, notable for its public floggings, disturbing lack of elderly people, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.613 billion Jasiceans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 43.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Jasicean economy, worth 136 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,328 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

National park visitors are reporting a rash of poison ivy sightings, foreign leaders who don't applaud Leader's speeches are regarded as enemies of Jasice, a baby's first breath is also a baby's first felony, and forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jasice's national animal is the aplix, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jasice is ranked 258,726^th in the world and 35^th in Nevadia for Most Cultured, scoring 62 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
