The Sultanate of Zoltab is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 33.301 billion Zoltabians 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 enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 64.4%.

The Zoltabian economy, worth a remarkable 1,222 trillion Laris a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 36,700 Laris, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 104,926 per year while the poor average 10,225, a ratio of 10.3 to 1.

There are no minimum wage laws, military spending recently hit a new high, military spending is on the increase, and immigrant Maxtopians are routinely sold on popular internet auction sites. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zoltab's national animal is the 5-humped camel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zoltab is ranked 144,015^th in the world and 1^st in The Assembly of Sovereign Nations for Safest, scoring 64.83 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
