The Anschluss of Jerzylvania is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by -insert desired name here- with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, parental licensing program, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 16.601 billion Jerzylvanians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the only town without representation. The average income tax rate is 70.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Jerzylvanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,883 trillion deciduous tree leaves a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 113,481 deciduous tree leaves, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

There is a 'turn around' sign at every border entrance, it's been a banner year for local vexillology, Jerzylvanian watches are often the only thing to survive a disaster intact, and write-in candidate '-insert desired name here- Sucks' is perennially popular. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jerzylvania's national animal is the clock face and its national religion is varies per individuals.

Jerzylvania is ranked 90,484th in the world and 1st in Democracy for Most Stationary, with 500.95483911092 days.
