The Oppressed Peoples of Zerocomm is a tiny, genial nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 12 million Zerocommians 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 tiny government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 8.8%.

The strong Zerocommian economy, worth 663 billion Monkeys a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Soda Sales. Average income is 55,277 Monkeys , and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

The government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, all footpaths have tollbooths, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', and promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Zerocomm's national animal is the Monkey, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Zerocomm is ranked 263,830^th in the world and 102^nd in Sancturia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring zero on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
