The 0000 Governor of Zymurgygenesis is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its unlimited-speed roads. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 20.031 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous government concentrates mainly on Commerce, although Education and Law & Order are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 24%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Gambling industry, followed by Automobile Manufacturing and Information Technology.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, and X-Files ratings have hit an all-time low. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zymurgygenesis's national animal is the moose, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Crown Royal.

Zymurgygenesis is ranked 3rd in 0000 and 79,714th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -17 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
