The Queendom of Z24 is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, devout population of 3.824 billion Z24ians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 43.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Z24ian economy, worth 52.4 trillion yen a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Pizza Delivery, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 13,703 yen, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction, teenagers are told they're not thinking about sex enough, all you have to do is pray to get into Z24, and it's always rabbit season. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Z24's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Z24 is ranked 47,043rd in the world and 903rd in Ambition for Safest, scoring 103.64 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
