The Rosaceaen Sovereignty of Jacose is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Consul Gabriel de Beaumont with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, enslaved workforce, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.557 billion Jacoseans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caladan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.9%.

The thriving Jacosean economy, worth 127 trillion Jacosean Credits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 81,625 Jacosean Credits, with the richest citizens earning 7.8 times as much as the poorest.

Little League matches are often attended by riot police with water cannon... just in case, the government has implemented minimum wage laws, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, and the military is researching proton packs and PK-meters to combat "unseen enemy forces". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jacose's national animal is the White Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Jacose is ranked 130,074^th in the world and 5^th in Halcyona for Most Primitive, scoring -41.59 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
