The Fake News of Jornal Tuga is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jornalista Tuga with a fair hand, and renowned for its flagrant waste-dumping, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12.504 billion jornaleiros enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Departamento Jornalístico. The average income tax rate is 24.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming jornaleiro economy, worth a remarkable 1,030 trillion 2 euros o jornals a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 82,443 2 euros o jornals, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Popular websites like NationStates are blocked for "national security", smoking is banned in public areas, airship use has soared while property values beneath their routes have plummeted, and toddler groups have taken over local libraries. Crime is well under control. Jornal Tuga's national animal is the letras, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Jornalismo.

Jornal Tuga is ranked 180,686^th in the world and 102^nd in Portugal for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.36 law-abiding acts per hour.
