Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Zombie Green and Holy Empire of Oneofakynd is a colossal, economically powerful nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 6.73 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and the Environment. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fenchurch. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 60%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Religious organizations are being forced to leave the country or pay income taxes like everybody else, the government is avowedly atheist, the government has begun selling heroin and ecstasy to help fund its projects, and the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly. Crime is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Oneofakynd's national animal is the Dentarthurdent, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Ningi.

Oneofakynd is ranked 4,447th in The North Pacific and 98,493rd in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -33 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
