The Zaporizhian Host of Cossack Ukraine is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Hetman Volodymyr Zelenskyy with an iron fist, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, frequent executions, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.701 billion Cossacks are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zaporizhzhia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Cossack economy, worth 307 trillion Rodins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 113,756 Rodins, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 596,418 per year while the poor average 11,620, a ratio of 51.3 to 1.

The weather report is the prisoners' favourite programme, the government says that Possession is nine-tenths of the Lore, hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", and every spring railroad foundations erode to reveal human remains. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cossack Ukraine's national animal is the Nightingale, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Verdigrisism.

Cossack Ukraine is ranked 45,207^th in the world and 29^th in Barbaria for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 161.29 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
