The Federal Republic of Jakun is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Kuramoto Masaki with an even hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate population of 1.142 billion Jakunese 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shisumi. The average income tax rate is 35.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Jakunese economy, worth 76.1 trillion jakunese yen a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,637 jakunese yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb, Shintoism has been named as Jakun's national religion, the weather report is the prisoners' favourite programme, and athletes are renowned for being the best at maths. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jakun's national animal is the hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Shintoism.

Jakun is ranked 157,720^th in the world and 2,370^th in The East Pacific for Most Authoritarian, with 671.05 milliStalins.
