Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Holy Empire of Jace Ste is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its smutty television, ban on automobiles, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 739 million Jace Steans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tyuvsky. The average income tax rate is 80.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Jace Stean economy, worth 73.8 trillion Lire a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 99,903 Lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nuclear warheads are frequently launched into space as a warning to invading meteoroids, the Small Council has more than a little influence, the government is using tax revenues to provide jobs for the poor, and businesses are forced to bring all work back within the nation's borders. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jace Ste's national animal is the Eurasian brown bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jace Ste is ranked 29,202^nd in the world and 959^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,489.06 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
