The State of Janet Charles is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its public floggings, complete lack of prisons, and frequent executions. The hard-working, democratic population of 15.758 billion Janet Charlesians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The thriving Janet Charlesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,009 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Gambling, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 64,059 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 226,749 per year while the poor average 13,066, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Janet Charles's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Janet Charles is ranked 169,923^rd in the world and 2^nd in Connaught for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 403.13 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
