The Federal Republic of JK-47 is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 281 million Usonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 57.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Usonian economy, worth 7.08 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 25,197 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, euthanasia is illegal, and extreme political groups are outlawed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. JK-47's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

JK-47 is ranked 117,019th in the world and 517th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 689.92 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
