The Lemon Republic of Jigsland is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Jack with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 6.019 billion Jigslandis have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of JigsCity. The average income tax rate is 83.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Jigslandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,019 trillion Jigsmarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 169,447 Jigsmarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

The question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression, government officials are held to the highest standard of morality, dozens of additional foreign policy specialists have been sent to the country's WA Mission, and withdrawal of support for drug addicts is leaving many with cold sweats. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jigsland's national animal is the Giraffe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Jigsland is ranked 27,455^th in the world and 403^rd in the West Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 7,320.79 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
