The Federation of Zephyriana is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Luis with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.727 billion Zephyrians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Solarien. The average income tax rate is 30.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zephyrianan economy, worth 187 trillion Zephyrs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,599 Zephyrs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's a politician called Male Infant McKay, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, pictures of government employees with expensive Pearbooks 'working' on exotic beaches dominate local tabloids, and Zephyrians incessantly needle their doctors for relief. Crime is totally unknown. Zephyriana's national animal is the Zephyr Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Mipocism.

Zephyriana is ranked 56,029^th in the world and 1,372^nd in the South Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 51.48 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
