The Republic of Paradise and Zion is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Lawrence Yanke with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 4.304 billion Paradiseans and Zionians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paradisean City. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Paradisean and Zionian economy, worth 652 trillion Nirvanas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 151,652 Nirvanas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Citizens often pray for divine guidance in supermarkets, future forecasters fearfully discuss grey goo and human obsolescence, the pursuit of wanted criminals ends at the entrance of the pay'n'spray garage as police refuse to enter any private property, and more citizens have access to Maxtopian Grass than clean drinking water. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Paradise and Zion's national animal is the Kangaroo, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.
Paradise and Zion is ranked 10,621st in the world and 1st in The Continent of Utopia for Most Cultured, scoring 116 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
