The Democratic Republic of Juli is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Juli Agars with a fair hand, and remarkable for its fear of technology, absence of drug laws, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.163 billion Julians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 12.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Julian economy, worth 120 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. Average income is 55,897 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

A major religion has been named as Juli's national religion, saying that someone looks a bit pale can be construed as hate speech, foreign leaders are advising that Juli Agars's letters must have gotten lost in the mail, and city workers have declared that rolling markets aren't good for business after all. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Juli's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Juli is ranked 263,106^th in the world and 461^st in Starlight for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 12.79 Effective Tax Rate.
