The State of SJ

“Mission Accomplished”

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

The State of SJ is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its public floggings, frequent executions, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 12.112 billion SJians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. The average income tax rate is 69.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant SJian economy, worth 145 trillion betales 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 Basket Weaving and Book Publishing. Average income is 12,023 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, the army insists there is nothing gay about men in uniforms rolling in the mud, and SJ has designated Westminster as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SJ's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

SJ is ranked 82,636^th in the world and 112^th in Omega Prime for Most Primitive, scoring 24.49 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
