The Republic of Empire of Johnland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by John Bucketman with an even hand, and renowned for its closed borders, infamous sell-swords, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 11.162 billion Johnlandians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry and Law & Order are also considered important, while Environment and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bucketville. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Johnlandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,136 trillion Liberal Tears a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 281,037 Liberal Tears, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,804,358 per year while the poor average 17,803, a ratio of 101 to 1.
Adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, people think garlic bread counts as one of their "five a day", Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year, and kids are gathering at the local soda shop to celebrate staying out past sundown. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Empire of Johnland's national animal is the Bucket, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.
Empire of Johnland is ranked 18,059th in the world and 19th in The Black Hawks for Most Stationary, with 1,689.86768237288 days.
