The Empire of Zaneya is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working population of 10 million Zaneyans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 19.6%.

The Zaneyan economy, worth 517 billion Zanianss a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 51,758 Zanianss , and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zaneya's national animal is the Hawk , which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Zaneya is ranked 188,081^st in the world and 4,769^th in the Rejected Realms for Smartest Citizens, with 23.71 quips per hour.
