The Federal Republic of Zitru is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its national health service, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 28.815 billion Zitrans 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Raedburg. The average income tax rate is 89.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Zitran economy, worth a remarkable 2,372 trillion Zitran kroner a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 82,350 Zitran kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Gigantic marble churches take up almost half the land area of small villages, park rangers perform full-body searches on suspected fungus smugglers, Occam's razor has sliced to pieces any childhood belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, and in life full of care there is no time to stop and stare. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zitru's national animal is the Zitran dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Zitru is ranked 30,609th in the world and 6th in Astyria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 82.14 law-abiding acts per hour.
