The Very Democractic Nation of Eastern Juble Lux is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Ione Paun with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 5.417 billion Eastern Juble Luxians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Opulent Underground. The average income tax rate is 87.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Eastern Juble Luxian economy, worth 714 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 131,871 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Relationships often break down when doctors tell couples they are genetically incompatible, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, the nation has returned to more conventional warfare to slaughter its enemies, and political scientists despair as the national mascot election eclipses all others in voter enthusiasm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eastern Juble Lux's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Eastern Juble Lux is ranked 278,279^th in the world and 5,192^nd in the South Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -318.74 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
