The FISH of Zeneb is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Fish Zeneb with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 25.636 billion Zenebians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zenebo. The average income tax rate is 77.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Zenebian economy, worth 426 trillion Zens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 16,634 Zens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Airport security is provided by private companies, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, Zeneb has designated Zenebo as its capital city, and Fish Zeneb has just been declared ruler of Zeneb in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zeneb's national animal is the yeti, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Fishism.

Zeneb is ranked 33,319th in the world and 1st in FISH for Safest, scoring 107.72 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
