The Republic of Sjaloom is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning eagle population. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 24.745 billion Sjaloomians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 13.4%.

The Sjaloomian economy, worth a remarkable 1,205 trillion Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 48,726 Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Sjaloom's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Sjaloom is ranked 209,958^th in the world and 1^st in Jericho for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 276.77 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
