The Johnathitanion Borderlands of Billy Bob Johnathan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Johnny Mc Tylenhauser-Bobbsworth with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.002 billion Mexicans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tyler City. The average income tax rate is 66.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Billy Bob Johnathanian economy, worth 85.0 trillion Billys a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 84,818 Billys, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, wood-framed catapults are ready to launch diseased corpses into besieged cities, 100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past, and fake beard sales are on the rise amongst female commuters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Billy Bob Johnathan's national animal is the John, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Billy Bob Johnathan is ranked 109,207th in the world and 68th in Hell for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.66 law-abiding acts per hour.
