The Republic of Jrcuo is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its digital currency, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.493 billion Jrcuoans 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 26.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Jrcuoan economy, worth 200 trillion OrcDollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,612 OrcDollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
The weather report is the prisoners' favourite programme, studio executives abandon tragic stories of star-crossed lovers because "it's been done", returning vacationers often find that their property is now a construction site, and scavengers with burlap sacks and shovels skulk around graveyards. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jrcuo's national animal is the Octopus, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Jrcuo is ranked 146,672nd in the world and 59th in Orcuo for Most Conservative, scoring 59.67 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
