The Immortal Empire of Zarkenis Ultima is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Enlightened Rozel Asheron with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 28.548 billion Zarkenians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Xevaris. The average income tax rate is 86.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Zarkenian economy, worth a remarkable 3,451 trillion Crystal Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 120,914 Crystal Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Raver DJ XStacy holds multiple medical degrees in chillaxing, there's nothing special about Enlightened Rozel Asheron, drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, and in a fit of passion Enlightened Rozel Asheron has shredded thirty years' worth of petitions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zarkenis Ultima's national animal is the Feral One, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Griscorean Polytheism.

Zarkenis Ultima is ranked 8,762nd in the world and 2nd in The Council of The Multiverse for Lowest Crime Rates, with 103.58 law-abiding acts per hour.
