The ឵឵឵឵ of Island Zero is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Z3 with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, soft-spoken computers, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 10.643 billion Islanders enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Furnace. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Zeron economy, worth a remarkable 8,541 trillion bits 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. 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 a breathtaking 802,544 bits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Litter collection has replaced fast food as the most popular after-school job, aggressive promotion of global warming puts polar bears on thin ice, the police use sound cannons and mortars to deal with loud parties, and voters must frequently select what they view as the lesser of two evils on the ballot. Crime is totally unknown. Island Zero's national animal is the tardigrade, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Island Zero is ranked 188,226th in the world and 35th in The Alliance of Dictators for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 661.06 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
