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

The People's Republic of Jerrangutan is a fledgling, socially progressive nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 6 million Jerrangutanians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 71.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The basket case Jerrangutanian economy, worth 66.7 billion Soviets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 11,120 Soviets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leader's speeches are beloved by insomniacs, all the playground's a stage for Jerrangutanian schoolchildren, foreign policy often involves bullwhips and leather, and public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jerrangutan's national animal is the Orangutan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jerrangutan is ranked 206,178^th in the world and 3,147^th in The North Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 9.2 Obesity Rate.
