The Gold Theocratic State of New Zoigai is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Papal Cheif Nemias Gregory with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 9.265 billion New Zoigaians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Detroit. The average income tax rate is 56.8%.

The all-consuming New Zoigaian economy, worth 916 trillion gold bars a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is 98,941 gold bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

High school bands practice by moonlight, foreign musicians that Papal Cheif Nemias Gregory dislikes are turned away at the border, the last thing New Zoigaian soldiers hear before charging into battle is a preacher trying to convert them, and edutainment video games are taking New Zoigai's students to the next level. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Zoigai's national animal is the Komodo Dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

New Zoigai is ranked 140,940^th in the world and 970^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,754.08 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
