The GUNDAM-adjacent Rick Dias of Jetan is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Jeddak Odysseus Carter with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, zero percent divorce rate, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 27.322 billion Jetanese are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, 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 Thark. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Jetanese economy, worth a remarkable 6,710 trillion Jetanian Marks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 245,608 Jetanian Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Jetanese tourists are banned from many nations due to their tendency to randomly explode, one tree's worth of paperwork accompanies each imported log of timber, raver DJ XStacy holds multiple medical degrees in chillaxing, and virtually all of the country's economic activity takes place in Thark. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jetan's national animal is the Thoat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Jetan is ranked 2,155th in the world and 1st in Alyr for Lowest Crime Rates, with 142 law-abiding acts per hour.
