The Great Theocratic Empire of Jocyn is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Holy Emperor Makino X of Jocyn with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.678 billion Jocyniens 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, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Environment and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Château-Royal. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 93.2%.

The frighteningly efficient jocynien economy, worth a remarkable 3,968 trillion Jocynian shillings a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is a breathtaking 516,857 Jocynian shillings, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 4,106,620 per year while the poor average 15,599, a ratio of 263 to 1.

Motorcycle riders are required to wear so much gear they've been nicknamed "Stay Pufts", no-one can foil the ambitions of Big Aluminium, it's a marvellous night for a moon dance as the sparks on your home start to rise, and women who miscarry have their death-masks displayed in the Wax Museum's "Sociopaths and Serial Killers Exhibit". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Jocyn's national animal is the tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Makinist Upper Order.

Jocyn is ranked 2,178^th in the world and 8^th in Calme Ybovien for Lowest Crime Rates, with 141.67 law-abiding acts per hour.
