The Republic of Jensen Button is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-working population of 8 million Jensen Buttonians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 25.6%.

The strong Jensen Buttonian economy, worth 361 billion dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 45,195 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

Suit-clad businessmen have been taking advantage of the relaxed welfare qualifications by shopping with food stamps, careless Maxémon Trainers have been the cause of numerous search and rescue operations, the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, and gun ownership is compulsory. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jensen Button's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Jensen Button is ranked 244,927^th in the world and 19^th in Formula One for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -5.48 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
