The Republic of JosheNation is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by Demetrius Demarcus Junior The Third with an even hand, and remarkable for its flagrant waste-dumping, strictly enforced bedtime, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 756 million JosheNationians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Joshe City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.5%.

The frighteningly efficient JosheNationian economy, worth 97.0 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 128,280 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 594,591 per year while the poor average 16,664, a ratio of 35.7 to 1.

Foreign spirits are hard to find due to an abundance of "Cletus and Jim Bob's Homemade JosheNationian Moonshine", Demetrius Demarcus Junior The Third has just been declared ruler of JosheNation in an international press conference, Eagles with strange deformities like three eyes and tentacles have been seen prancing through the countryside where industrial waste is dumped, and political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions. Crime is almost non-existent. JosheNation's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

JosheNation is ranked 4,501^st in the world and 93^rd in The East Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 117,376.24 Standard Monetary Units.
