The Fédération of Japba is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Raphaël Saragosse with an even hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, ban on automobiles, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.22 billion Japbais are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Adix-ville. The average income tax rate is 78.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Japbais economy, worth 961 trillion Nickel Jabais 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 Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 116,990 Nickel Jabais, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The seventh son of a seventh son is fated to be a millionaire, the nation's peacekeeping efforts usually come with a healthy dose of pillaging, commuters often break into synchronised para-para dancing for no reason at all, and kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Japba's national animal is the Lamantin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Athéisme.

Japba is ranked 12,647^th in the world and 750^th in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 145.71 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
