The Mazdayasna Commonwealth of Zebastani is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by PM Joseph Hadmirak with an iron fist, and renowned for its enslaved workforce, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.468 billion Zebastanians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pyro. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Zebastanian economy, worth 617 trillion Zelts a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 178,091 Zelts, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 755,665 per year while the poor average 27,073, a ratio of 27.9 to 1.

Bands of paramedics walk the streets looking for suspicious medical activity, handling people's data is proving an immersive experience, the government is a proud sponsor of the National Gaming Association, and AI citizens are criticized for being robotic. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Zebastani's national animal is the giraffe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Zoroastrianism.

Zebastani is ranked 90,603^rd in the world and 464^th in 10000 Islands for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 285.72 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
