Zakanda is a WA Member

The People's Republic of Zakanda is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Declan Webster with a fair hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5.915 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Commerce. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Asina. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology industry, followed by Gambling and Automobile Manufacturing.

Citizens applying for their first jobs face fierce competition from the homeless, the government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system, the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, and small businesses are gobbled up almost daily by corporate giants. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zakanda's national animal is the ocelot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Christianity, and its currency is the pound.

Zakanda is ranked 2463rd in the region and 54,353rd in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
