The United States of Zulore is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Zulore with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 3.897 billion Zuloreans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zulfyre City. The average income tax rate is 77.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Zulorean economy, worth 321 trillion Zul Rings and Ori Tokens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,616 Zul Rings and Ori Tokens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Posters on 'Zulorean Values' advise against being proud of Zulore, a widely accepted trade policy is "tit-for-tat", the police have been known to wiretap confessional boxes, and Zuloreans seem to be catching more chills. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zulore's national animal is the Double-headed eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Zulore is ranked 263,544^th in the world and 4,145^th in The East Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 18,919.25 Standard Monetary Units.
