The Republic of Jornexia is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its burgeoning Hummingbird population. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 12 million Jornexians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 8.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Jornexian economy, worth 649 billion Gennish Fagrows a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 54,114 Gennish Fagrows, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is almost non-existent. Jornexia's national animal is the Hummingbird.

Jornexia is ranked 266,269^th in the world and 227^th in Aesica for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring zero on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
