The Most Serene Republic of Jiadara is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its smutty television, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 292 million Jiadarans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Jiadaran economy, worth 11.3 trillion jiadines a year, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 38,676 jiadines, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Diplomats agree to the terms and conditions of peace treaties without reading them, high school boys are required to pass vigorous self-mastery and sensitivity training to graduate, the number of students attending university has reached a record high, and old people living in plastic bubbles complain about a new type of social isolation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jiadara's national animal is the dappleback bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jiadara is ranked 169,007^th in the world and 79^th in Africa for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 541.14 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
