The Allied States of Jankono is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Leader with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, pith helmet sales, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.405 billion OOFS hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Totally Normal City. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient OOF economy, worth 879 trillion robucks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 162,783 robucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The delay between passed legislation and real world implementation is often a decade or longer, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, advertisers are struggling to make water sound cool to a twitchy public, and long queues are apparently signs of a well-run airport. Crime is totally unknown. Jankono's national animal is the noob, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is ALL OF THEM.

Jankono is ranked 8,235^th in the world and 182^nd in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 448.8 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
