The Hawk of Jade21 is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its burgeoning emu population. The hard-working population of 2.758 billion Jade21ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 17.9%.

The Jade21ian economy, worth 123 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 44,702 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate. Jade21's national animal is the emu, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Jade21 is ranked 231,738^th in the world and 1,385^th in the Plains of Perdition for Most Developed, scoring 52.62 on the Human Development Index.
