The Federation of Jerma-Topia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by goober goonington with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.231 billion Jermatopians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government prioritizes Administration, with Education, Industry, and Welfare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Jermoidia. The average income tax rate is 61.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jerma-Topian economy, worth 296 trillion Jermatopian Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 132,981 Jermatopian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, public nudity is compulsory, humble workers tempt fate for a taste of airline caviar, and 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Jerma-Topia's national animal is the jerma, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Jerma-Topia is ranked 50,314^th in the world and 1,228^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 103 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
