The Commonwealth of Zane Donovan is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 4.411 billion Zane Donovanians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.3%.

The strong Zane Donovanian economy, worth 176 trillion IQS a year, is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 39,980 IQS, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 225,600 per year while the poor average 3,484, a ratio of 64.7 to 1.

ZD-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age, murder is sanctioned if the legal paperwork is filled out correctly, the silencing of dissent speaks volumes about the quality of Zane Donovanian democracy, and the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Zane Donovan's national animal is the S․A․R․A․H, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Zane Donovan is ranked 186,032^nd in the world and 4^th in Eureka for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 42 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
