The United Federation of Joodey is a gargantuan, genial nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 17.261 billion Joods enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yxburg. The average income tax rate is 90.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Joodish economy, worth a remarkable 1,387 trillion Jeeds a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 80,412 Jeeds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Halberds are common 18th birthday presents, heavy industry must go to expensive lengths to dispose of waste, engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?", and cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Joodey's national animal is the Unicorn, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Joodey is ranked 274,212^th in the world and 10,787^th in Lazarus for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 7,960.79 Standard Monetary Units.
