The Democracy of Juniople is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 508 million Juniopolitans enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Iounioupolis. The average income tax rate is 23.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Juniopolitan economy, worth 71.1 trillion prinkipikons a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 139,969 prinkipikons, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Aristocracy is given the bird and called out as a lark, using "inspect element" is grounds for espionage charges, the government officially wants you to slow down and speak more clearly, and ex-cons are paid to remain law-abidingly dull. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Juniople's national animal is the peacock, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Juniople is ranked 249,452^nd in the world and 8^th in Fallen Nations for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 28.12 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
