Zakanda is a WA Member

The People's Republic of Zakanda is a colossal, devout nation, ruled by Prime Minister Declan Webster with a fair hand, and remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 6.394 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 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.

Bizarre-looking creatures called 'ocelotdogs' dominate wildlife preserves, government officials are held to the highest standard of morality, the nation has become a pariah for giving pirates letters of marque, and minority children spend hours bussing to schools miles away from home. 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 2256th in the region and 52,421st in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
