Bellow is a summary of The Armed Republic of Jam and Tea written by the Vice-President of Earthstralia (Jam and Tea's closest ally). It was written on 22nd July 2006, and was featured in 'Insider-Nation', and Jam and Tea's top selling book, 'Almighty Leader of Lennies guide to the perfect nation'.
The Armed Republic of Jam and Tea is a small, economically powerful nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 10 million are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defence, Commerce, and Social Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2%. A robust private sector is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling industries.
The mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, marijuana is legal in the privacy of your own home, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime is a problem, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Jam and Tea's national animal is the Jam Monster, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Scone.
