The Armed Republic of Jealhaffen is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate, cynical population of 6 million are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Social Welfare, although Defence and Healthcare are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 67%, and even higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing.

Elections have been outlawed and military spending recently hit a new high. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown. Jealhaffen's national animal is the fluskot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the telli.

Jealhaffen is ranked 2nd in the region and 83,921st in the world for Largest Information Technology Sector.
