The Occidental People's Republic of Josepania is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by El Presidente Jose David Costantino with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, complete lack of prisons, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, humorless population of 28.311 billion Josepanians 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 Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Palmira. The average income tax rate is 67.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Josepanian economy, worth a remarkable 7,905 trillion gold pesos a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 279,223 gold pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's politicians are acknowledged as the most polite in the region to the dismay of comedians everywhere, the dartboard at the Josepanian Cancer Research Charity bears a picture of El Presidente Jose David Costantino's face, bike rage is all the rage, and El Presidente Jose David Costantino panders to nontraditional families. Crime is totally unknown. Josepania's national animal is the seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Communionist Liberationist Catholicism.

Josepania is ranked 105,748th in the world and 417th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,592.53 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
