The State of Zabulon is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of prisons, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, cynical population of 21.349 billion Zabulonians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.2%.

The thriving Zabulonian economy, worth 636 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 29,813 betales, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, military spending is on the increase, and Zabulon has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Zabulon's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Zabulon is ranked 237,119^th in the world and 8^th in Republic of South Africa for Most Beautiful Environments, with 354.93 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
