The Hale of Jasper Junimos is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its public floggings, sprawling nuclear power plants, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, devout population of 7.867 billion Jasper Junimosians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 42.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Jasper Junimosian economy, worth 623 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 79,193 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The studies of art and philosophy are banned, builders spend more time negotiating "tasteful architecture" than on actual construction, members of the government all have oddly similar anecdotes about their childhoods, and patch v22.1705 - all developers are now paid for work. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jasper Junimos's national animal is the elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jasper Junimos is ranked 99,235^th in the world and 2^nd in Fragments for Most Developed, scoring 61.95 on the Human Development Index.
