The Holy Kingdom of Joaco is a gargantuan, genial nation, renowned for its daily referendums, vat-grown people, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 31.7 billion Joacoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of El Bajo Belgrano. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Joacoan economy, worth an astonishing 11,929 trillion kikoes a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 376,325 kikoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government seems embarrassed to be seen governing, parents dread their examinations more than their children, three extra hay bales are rolled into Joaco's gold vaults every year, and everyone has the equal opportunity to have their wallet stolen. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Joaco's national animal is the Carpincho, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Joaco is ranked 108^th in the world and 7^th in Balder for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 9,145.92 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
