The Land of Jarrahland is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Jarrah with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.184 billion Jarrahs 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jarrahtown. The average income tax rate is 82.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jarrahlandian economy, worth 233 trillion Cockles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 106,984 Cockles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Polite commuters on the Jarrahtown Metro always let hurried workers off the train first, lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed, would-be emigrants are told "abandon all hope all ye who would exit here", and transgender and agender are on the education agenda. Crime is totally unknown. Jarrahland's national animal is the Murray Cod, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Freedom.

Jarrahland is ranked 14,255th in the world and 1st in The waters for Most Developed, scoring 88.58 on the Human Development Index.
