The BMW of Z3 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 22.843 billion Z3ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Z3ian economy, worth a remarkable 4,629 trillion Z3s a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 202,680 Z3s, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 884,301 per year while the poor average 29,354, a ratio of 30.1 to 1.
Agricultural employees work for peanuts, airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, only the rich can afford the latest medical innovations, and town welcome signs list corporate sponsors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Z3's national animal is the Z3, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Z3 is ranked 154,492nd in the world and 7,058th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 60.65 law-abiding acts per hour.
