The Constitutional Sultanate of Zekeinistan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Sultan Islam Nurmagat with an iron fist, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, zero percent divorce rate, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20.543 billion Zekeinistanis are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Spirituality, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Social Policy and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amashabul. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Zekeinistani economy, worth a remarkable 8,354 trillion Tegs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 406,663 Tegs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,381,003 per year while the poor average 88,346, a ratio of 15.6 to 1.

Hiding wrinkles with make-up is illegal, scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, the government invades its allies more than its enemies, and the monarch's main official duty is christening ships. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zekeinistan's national animal is the Elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Islam.

Zekeinistan is ranked 276,774th in the world and 10,887th in Lazarus for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 6,913.28 Standard Monetary Units.
