The Union of Federated States of Zootron is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Simon Cooper with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, aversion to nipples, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.651 billion Zootronians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Defense, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zootron City. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zootronian economy, worth a remarkable 2,013 trillion labour credits a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 208,673 labour credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms, the government tells its citizens to 'forgive and forget', and authorities are looking for a stool pigeon to rat out who is stealing food from pigeon toilets. Crime is totally unknown. Federated States of Zootron's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Federated States of Zootron is ranked 7,483^rd in the world and 198^th in The East Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 99.25 Law-abiding Acts Per Hour.
