The Curial Republic of Zyrcrestia is a gargantuan, genial nation, notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, national health service, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 34.793 billion Zyrcrestians 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.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government is primarily concerned with Education, although Administration, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while Defense and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zyrtulai. The average income tax rate is 80.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zyrcrestian economy, worth a remarkable 9,894 trillion zyrces a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an amazing 284,368 zyrces, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians are losing their jobs in a plan to make the government 'leaner and fitter', excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside, artists are renowned for their ability to make art pieces out of thin air, and truancy is as easy as clicking a camera icon. Crime is totally unknown. Zyrcrestia's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Zyrcrestia is ranked 306,933^rd in the world and 366^th in 10000 Islands for Fattest Citizens, with 2.27 Obesity Rate.
