The Socialist Democraturship of Zaiid is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by First Equal - Democratur Elåm with an even hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 1.966 billion Zaiidi are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zaiid Capital District. The average income tax rate is 80.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Zaiidi economy, worth 163 trillion vödas 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 Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is 83,316 vödas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Veteran cops reminisce over their heavy armor days, the people are famous throughout the region for their perfect yellow teeth, abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals, and the needs of the living outweigh the needs of the dead. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zaiid's national animal is the Zaiidi Forest Goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zaiid is ranked 45,440^th in the world and 495^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,243.09 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
