The Jaramian Federation of Hatterland is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Adil Jelal Al-Haik with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 4.038 billion Jaramians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Terhat Tyci. The average income tax rate is 79.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Jaramian economy, worth 621 trillion Jaramian qimas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 153,931 Jaramian qimas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, army doctors who come under attack defend themselves by using stethoscopes like nunchaku, imitation is the sincerest form of felony, and colonial citizens are forced to sing the praise of the "Great Jaramian Liberator". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hatterland's national animal is the common fire orb, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sunni Islam.

Hatterland is ranked 286,619^th in the world and 4,154^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -7.48 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
