The Alyrian State of Jamhuristan is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Izrael Yaqob with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, enslaved workforce, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 12.337 billion Jamhurians 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 juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jamhuria. The average income tax rate is 88.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jamhuristanian economy, worth a remarkable 3,056 trillion Pesas 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. 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 an amazing 247,710 Pesas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Military equipment is being auctioned off to extend comatose centenarians' lives, residents of houses built on a foundation of wishful thinking are prone to an odd sinking feeling, populations of two-headed Eagles have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites, and gangs have taken to secret handshakes after tattoos were banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jamhuristan's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Wahidya.

Jamhuristan is ranked 317,582nd in the world and 66th in Kerbals of the North for Safest, scoring 6.99 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
