The Federated Island Republic of Zocra is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Chancellor Howard Lewis Derby with an even hand, and remarkable for its aversion to nipples, strictly enforced bedtime, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, devout population of 24.03 billion Zocrans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tíío. The average income tax rate is 7.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Zocran economy, worth a remarkable 2,717 trillion zurcais a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 113,095 zurcais, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
Citizens have to identify all the polar bears in a blizzard photo in order to access their bank account, the moon's craters are more numerous every day, light entertainment shows are light on actual entertainment, and parents often leave their kids in the car while they attend mindfulness meditation sessions. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zocra's national animal is the cow, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.
Zocra is ranked 24,460th in the world and 2nd in United Alliances for Most Cultured, scoring 85 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
