The Kingdom of Jellie is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 4.467 billion Jellieans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 43.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Jelliean economy, worth 39.1 trillion florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 8,755 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction, excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside, exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, and maximum security fish farms leave caged salmon pining for the fjords. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jellie's national animal is the shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Jellie is ranked 277,685th in the world and 6th in Bounvandar for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 398.77 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
