The Confederacy of Zyvetskistaahn is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The Council of Executors with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, democratic population of 17.585 billion Zyvetens love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zyveta. The average income tax rate is 83.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Zyveten economy, worth a remarkable 1,083 trillion Zyvetenmarks a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Tourism industry. Average income is 61,613 Zyvetenmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military is slashing spending on conventional arms and diverting it to spending on prosthetic arms, public intoxication has decreased ever since fraternities were banned, the nation's Medal of Honour can be found as a free toy in breakfast cereal, and mining safety laws are often more expensive than what's being mined. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zyvetskistaahn's national animal is the Liffen forest rat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Zyveten Orthodoxy.

Zyvetskistaahn is ranked 58,382^nd in the world and 2,222^nd in The North Pacific for Nudest, with 175.25 Cheeks Per Square Mile.
