The Rust Zacht of Zondag is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Zander Zondag with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 24.414 billion Zondagers 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zondagstad. The average income tax rate is 67.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Zondagian economy, worth a remarkable 1,064 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 43,587 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Cars are banned, Zondags has been named as Zondag's national religion, Zander Zondag has just been declared ruler of Zondag in an international press conference, and Zondag has designated Zondagstad as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zondag's national animal is the pony, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Zondags.

Zondag is ranked 121,419th in the world and 35th in belgium for Lowest Crime Rates, with 63.56 law-abiding acts per hour.
