The GUNDAM-adjacent Rick Dias of Jetan is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jeddak Odysseus Carter with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 27.431 billion Jetanese 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thark. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Jetanese economy, worth a remarkable 6,765 trillion Jetanian Marks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 246,624 Jetanian Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

History textbook pages are used as impromptu tissues by distraught students, people believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more, truancy is as easy as clicking a camera icon, and the government is attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jetan's national animal is the Thoat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Jetan is ranked 8,799th in the world and 1st in Alyr for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 10,111.66 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
