The People's Library of The Jamdoin is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Chairwoman Alice with an even hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.676 billion Jamdonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chilladelphia. The average income tax rate is 99.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Jamdoni economy, worth a remarkable 1,185 trillion planets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 208,926 planets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Confessions don't count if suffixed with "izzle", hordes of tourists are ruining the environment, bitter pastors forced to officiate gay marriage 'accidentally' pronounce couples "husband and abomination", and hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have. Crime is totally unknown. The Jamdoin's national animal is the magpie, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

The Jamdoin is ranked 273,231^st in the world and 131^st in Refugia for Largest Black Market, with 90.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
