The Federation of Northern Zorbrasnka is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Harvard with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 3.633 billion Northern Zorbrasnkans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arcadia. The average income tax rate is 46.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Northern Zorbrasnkan economy, worth 467 trillion Credits a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 128,797 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new iVote app allows representatives to vote on legislation by launching ill-tempered birds and matching candies, small businesses are gobbled up almost daily by corporate giants, restaurants are required to specify whether their toilet paper was made in Northern Zorbrasnka, and the entire entry for Northern Zorbrasnka in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the World reads 'mostly harmless'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern Zorbrasnka's national animal is the gray wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Northern Zorbrasnka is ranked 10,009^th in the world and 473^rd in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 407.68 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
