The Holy Imperial Republic of Jasonovia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by King Jason with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, strictly enforced bedtime, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 17.14 billion Jasonovians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jasonovia. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Jasonovian economy, worth a remarkable 5,545 trillion Rapgüks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 323,554 Rapgüks, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents, drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, the government is using tax revenues to provide jobs for the poor, and agricultural science is the most competitive subject at universities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jasonovia's national animal is the Bicephalous Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Jasonovia is ranked 289,752^nd in the world and 304^th in The Land of Kings and Emperors for Most Primitive, scoring -639.91 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
