The Holy dystopia of Enzonar is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Great Father with an iron fist, and remarkable for its digital currency, anti-smoking policies, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.469 billion Enzonarians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Airstrip Millenium. The average income tax rate is 99.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Enzonar economy, worth a remarkable 1,405 trillion Merits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Information Technology and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 257,068 Merits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cubicles often double as graves as citizens literally work themselves to death, birds and children's kites are regularly brought down by anti-aircraft fire, a proud mining community is considering a rebellion after the Capital officially renamed them 'District XII', and there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Enzonar's national animal is the moose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Time Truth.

Enzonar is ranked 865th in the world and 2nd in 001 Alpha Prime for Most Patriotic, with 135.32 flags saluted per person per day.
