The Matriarchy of Zatanna is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, cynical population of 3.501 billion Magicians 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, liberal, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.3%.

The strong Magical economy, worth 146 trillion trick coins a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is 41,924 trick coins, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 270,206 per year while the poor average 2,628, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Zatanna's national animal is the bunny, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Zatanna is ranked 269,034^th in the world and 3,800^th in Ambition for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 376.48 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
