The Kingdom of Zauberfloete is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning snake population. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 22.149 billion Zauberfloeteans 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, International Aid, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 35.7%.

The Zauberfloetean economy, worth 772 trillion birds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. Average income is 34,871 birds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate. Zauberfloete's national animal is the snake, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zauberfloete is ranked 176,877^th in the world and 2,666^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 1,556.74 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
