The Commonwealth of Jyzeria is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Laura Neumann with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 19.018 billion Jyzerians 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 prioritizes Defense, although Education, Law & Order, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valencia. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jyzerian economy, worth a remarkable 3,049 trillion Jyzes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 160,338 Jyzes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sports club owners are having a moneyball, being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, paralegals spend all day Hewlett-Packing attorneys' law briefs, and some voters are required to show a minimum of four forms of identification. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jyzeria's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Violet.

Jyzeria is ranked 15,115^th in the world and 1^st in Jyzeria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 94.07 law-abiding acts per hour.
