The Headless Horseman of Zoran is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Atsila Ani'-Wah' with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, triple-decker prams, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 9.996 billion Zoranians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous government prioritizes Healthcare, although Environment, Education, and Industry are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Zoradia. The average income tax rate is 72.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zoranian economy, worth 718 trillion Adelas a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving and Tourism. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 71,848 Adelas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Gossip magazines are more interested in astrological stars than celebrity ones, explicit slash fiction is repackaged for kindergarten kids as stories about friends cuddling friends, stylish juvenile delinquents are highly overrepresented in fatal motorcycle accidents, and the government refuses to be a part of any international organization run by 'elites'. Crime is well under control. Zoran's national animal is the Platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Zonethos.

Zoran is ranked 12,818th in the world and 171st in the West Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring 88.91 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
