The Empire of The JVP is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Augusta with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, ubiquitous missile silos, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 23.979 billion JVPians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ferris. The average income tax rate is 73.4%.

The frighteningly efficient JVPian economy, worth a remarkable 4,599 trillion Pinces a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 191,823 Pinces, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Wealthy pranksters dump refuse on unsuspecting citizens from up high, graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, beating enemies to death with a baseball bat is legal if done within nine innings, and people are turning themselves into worm food. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The JVP's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

The JVP is ranked 171,427th in the world and 7th in Aels for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
