“Wherever we want to go, we'll go.”

The Colony of Jack Sparrow is a massive, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, soft-spoken computers, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed population of 4.337 billion Pirateses are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 47.2%.

The large but inefficient Jack Sparrowian economy, worth 202 trillion Golds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 46,662 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

The government is continually probing the galaxy in search of alien life, anything is permissible when wearing latex gloves, passionate nomination battles are often as intense as general elections, and government-sponsored gallows are being erected by Violetist temples. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jack Sparrow's national animal is the Ghoul, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jack Sparrow is ranked 101,737^th in the world and 84^th in Resuscitation for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 966.5 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
