The Queendom of Zvetlana is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 24.926 billion Zvetlanans 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zvetgrad. The average income tax rate is 78.4%.

The powerhouse Zvetlanan economy, worth a remarkable 2,984 trillion Zvets a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 119,731 Zvets, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Child labor has been outlawed, Zvetlanan politicians are often described as having more style than substance, sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed, and the government is under the thumb of countless special interests. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zvetlana's national animal is the Lana, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zvetlana is ranked 46,451^st in the world and 6^th in desert for Most Beautiful Environments, with 674.67 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
