National Blueprint · One of 195
A nation of 123 million whose government plans ¥180.7 trillion of bond issuance in fiscal 2026, whose public debt is twice its economy, and whose forests cover two thirds of its land.
Perfect Nations values what Japan owns and raises capital against it, through innovative financing for development (FfD) and super intelligence (SI).

03Solutions · The seven stars · Perfect Capita
Perfect Capita is the yearly cost, per person, of lifting everyone above the Living Line in all seven basic living standards, set with Japan in its own prices.
How Perfect Capita worksTap a star for its figure and source.
The price of Perfect Japan
To be set with Japan, from its own figures and in its own prices: Perfect Capita times the people of Japan, each year.
Perfect Nations estimate, to be confirmed with Japan. Figures marked dated rest on surveys more than five years old; lenient measures are marked as such. The strict measures
Strict measures. Food: share not moderately or severely food insecure (FAO). Water: safely managed drinking water where measured; where it is not, basic water, marked as such. Shelter: the lower of safely managed sanitation and the share outside urban slums. Energy: the lower of electricity per person against 1,000 kWh and clean cooking; where electricity per person is not published, clean cooking. Education: the lower of children reading by the end of primary school and lower-secondary completion. Health: WHO service coverage index. Livelihood: share above the stricter of the national poverty line and the World Bank line for the nation’s income group (US$8.30 a day for high-income nations). Each figure links to its source.
The Solution for JapanFood
You are a nation of savers, and your government borrows almost entirely from you.
Your homes have water, power and clean fuel, and your children learn well. One in seventeen of you still does not always have enough to eat. Let the savings of a nation reach every table in it.
“A nation of savers: let no household go without a meal.”
