The Protectorate of Jagadan is a mammoth, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 5.327 billion Jagadanians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 64.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Jagadanian economy, worth 85.3 trillion francs 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 Retail industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 16,009 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jagadan's national animal is the bison, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jagadan is ranked 46,024^th in the world and 1^st in safe for Safest, scoring 104.16 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
