The Empire of Japanese TacoMan is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by RealTacoMan with an iron fist, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, enforced nudity, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.002 billion Japanese TacoManians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Biggest Taco Factory. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 30.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Japanese TacoManian economy, worth 78.1 trillion Bullets a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Trout Farming. Average income is 77,951 Bullets, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 325,934 per year while the poor average 12,151, a ratio of 26.8 to 1.

Teachers regularly paddle unruly students, dangerous criminals are often 'accidentally' sent on one-way trips to Maxtopia, farting etiquette is taught in schools, and the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Japanese TacoMan's national animal is the Glocktopus, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Japanese TacoMan is ranked 286,837^th in the world and 137^th in MHBs New Earth for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -7.21 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
