The Republic of Jeton Bridge is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Presdent Sparlo Wollychec with an even hand, and remarkable for its prohibition of alcohol, frequent executions, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate population of 5.149 billion Jebi's are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Utrel. The average income tax rate is 34.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Jebian economy, worth 149 trillion Jettoes a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,090 Jettoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government spends millions of Jettoes every year prosecuting spammers, the amount welfare recipients spend on fertilizer has exploded, model railroad hobbyists have taken to muscling model shipbuilders off their "turf", and business owners return from long vacations to find their factories have been turned into homeless shelters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jeton Bridge's national animal is the Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Jeton Bridge is ranked 106,575th in the world and 93rd in New United Kingdom for Most Beautiful Environments, with 557.02 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
