The Technocratic Megacorp of BJMShaw is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by BJMShaw with an iron fist, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, soft-spoken computers, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 11.134 billion BJMShawians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of BJMShawington. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient BJMShawian economy, worth a remarkable 4,717 trillion Monies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 423,663 Monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Unpopular politicians are often caught between a rock and a hard place, fashion models are guaranteed to be 100% genuinely as anorexic as they appear on magazine covers, 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners, and students learn how to disarm mines before understanding basic arithmetic. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. BJMShaw's national animal is the Uni, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Kiwism.

BJMShaw is ranked 172,674th in the world and 45th in The United Federations for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
