The Confederacy of Jorori is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Matriarch Jana McLean with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, national health service, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 19.236 billion Jororians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, with Administration, Industry, and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Education aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 65.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Jororian economy, worth a remarkable 1,568 trillion Konirs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is 81,533 Konirs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.
International trade is a sticky issue, ruff times are ahead for those who aren't keen on party costumes, the government has declared that monochrome cinema is the next big thing, and prominent cultural symbols are featured on the backs of cereal boxes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Jorori's national animal is the fish, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
Jorori is ranked 91,431st in the world and 3rd in The Coalition of Governments for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.98 law-abiding acts per hour.
