The United Municipalities of The Jerichowan Country is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Chancellor Steffen Burchhardt with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 6.799 billion Jerichowans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Burg. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Jerichowan economy, worth a remarkable 1,334 trillion Jerichowan Guldens 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 196,347 Jerichowan Guldens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation locks people up and tells them they're mad for compassion's sake, the carbon footprint falls along with the human footprint during war, religious education is a new government priority, and the only science is political science. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Jerichowan Country's national animal is the Eurasian Crane, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Pragmatic Christianity.

The Jerichowan Country is ranked 131,338^th in the world and 5,485^th in The North Pacific for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,309.32 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
