The Jainist Theocracy of JACJ is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by King Jamill with an even hand, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 7.293 billion Jacjians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pacifism City. The average income tax rate is 99.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Jacjian economy, worth a remarkable 1,279 trillion Jagians a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 175,444 Jagians, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prenuptial contracts have replaced diamond rings in marriage proposals, government policies change at the drop of a rabbit, politicians spend more time in courtrooms than in Parliament, and cases of disease among the civilian population dwindle as civilian population dwindles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. JACJ's national animal is the Dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Jainism.

JACJ is ranked 331,543rd in the world and 709th in Communitas for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 701.78 Standard Monetary Units.
