The Free Land of BJMS is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, ban on automobiles, and hatred of cheese. The quiet, industrious population of 6.023 billion BJMShawians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of BJMShaw. The average income tax rate is 74.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped BJMShawian economy, worth 193 trillion Monies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 32,195 Monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

One does not simply walk into the tundra, the government is denying reports that criminals injected with experimental drugs have turned into monstrous supervillains, it is illegal to brush crumbs off your clothing outdoors, and confused-looking pigeons slide gently off frictionless window ledges. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. BJMS's national animal is the Uni, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

BJMS is ranked 275,088^th in the world and 14,386^th in Lazarus for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 25.69 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
