The Dictatorship of Zuanias is a massive, genial nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 2.366 billion Zuanians 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 Healthcare, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 76.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Zuaniasian economy, worth 103 trillion Greers a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 43,652 Greers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government seizes all major gold finds, Zuanias's soft-touch approach to diplomacy has made it known as the 'push-over' of the region, people across the world seek to be healthier by eliminating carbs, and teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zuanias's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zuanias is ranked 138,621st in the world and 45th in Wintercrest for Most Primitive, scoring -46.9 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
