The Principality of Jolteonia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Jolteon with a fair hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, strictly enforced bedtime, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 28.237 billion Jolteonians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Viridian Forest. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Jolteonian economy, worth a remarkable 9,066 trillion Pokédollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 321,090 Pokédollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap, the amount welfare recipients spend on fertilizer has exploded, 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners, and trains and passengers alike are often late. Crime is totally unknown. Jolteonia's national animal is the Jolteon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Jolteonia is ranked 735th in the world and 16th in Balder for Safest, scoring 177.7 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
