The Mariner Trench Army Ancient of James the Great is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical population of 19.93 billion James the Greatians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Social Policy, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The James the Greatian economy, worth 787 trillion heads 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 dominated by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 39,505 heads, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Surveillance cameras are banned, euthanasia is illegal, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, and the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. James the Great's national animal is the mountain goose, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

James the Great is ranked 5,254th in the world and 4th in The MT Army for Most Stationary, with 3,182.7062964 days.
