The Democratic Republic of Second Jabberwock is a large, safe nation, notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, avant-garde cinema, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-working, democratic population of 141 million Second Jabberwockians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 15.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Second Jabberwockian economy, worth 11.1 trillion Beaks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 78,545 Beaks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Airport announcements inform passengers that flights have been delayed because pilots are having afternoon naps, the Foreign Ministry thinks an eye for an eye is a blindingly good idea, barbed wire entanglements and guard towers surround the Second Jabberwock City Natural History Museum, and the typical murderer weighs 150kg and has hairy arms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Second Jabberwock's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Second Jabberwock is ranked 128,024^th in the world and 83^rd in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 599.28 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
