The Divine Empire of Zirilrath is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Emperor Optimus Validus Caesar with an iron fist, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, enslaved workforce, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 38.365 billion Zirilrathians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, 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 Aureus. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Zirilrathian economy, worth an astonishing 10,973 trillion aurums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 286,028 aurums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,040,630 per year while the poor average 13,173, a ratio of 154 to 1.

Penal labor is a de facto death sentence, 9 out of 10 consumers think that vitamins can cure cancer, fitness to teach sport is proven by urinating the furthest up a wall, and the nation is famous for bravely sending wave after wave of its soldiers until the enemy runs out of bullets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Zirilrath's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Satorism.

Zirilrath is ranked 331,966^th in the world and 17,824^th in Lazarus for Highest Drug Use, scoring 0.46 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
