The Kingdom of Zizia is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 794 million Zizians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ziz. The average income tax rate is 70.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Zizian economy, worth 23.2 trillion kis a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,242 kis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Zizia's national animal is the griffon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
