The Most Serene Republic of Jenalia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Brucia Parrias with an iron fist, and renowned for its enslaved workforce, ritual sacrifices, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 22.589 billion Jenalians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Palm City. The average income tax rate is 82.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jenalian economy, worth a remarkable 3,062 trillion Smarties 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Basket Weaving, Cheese Exports, and Retail. 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 an impressive 135,553 Smarties, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations, the family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year, dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, and referenda are banned by law and the Parliament has absolute control of the legislative process. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jenalia's national animal is the pig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Skepticism.

Jenalia is ranked 6,177^th in the world and 6^th in Equilism for Most Corrupt Governments, with 200.7 kickbacks per hour.
