The Kingdom of Zentaro is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.746 billion Zentaroans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, outspoken government prioritizes Spirituality, although Welfare, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 52.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Zentaroan economy, worth 54.6 trillion yen a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 31,278 yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
Leader's speeches are beloved by insomniacs, babies are a small but significant export, the Smalltopian embassy doubles as an electoral campaign headquarters, and adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zentaro's national animal is the mouse.
Zentaro is ranked 63,123rd in the world and 945th in Ambition for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 489.21 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
