The United Republic of Zeritae is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Minare Johanson with a fair hand, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 14.665 billion Zeritans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Renaek. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Zeritan economy, worth a remarkable 1,947 trillion Derndis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 132,780 Derndis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A flying elephant and Minare Johanson share the same nickname, funny-looking kids are stood at the front of the classroom for everybody to point and laugh at, living well is no longer the best kind of revenge, and passwords to nuclear codes must now contain upper and lower case characters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zeritae's national animal is the Harakell, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zeritae is ranked 43,260th in the world and 1st in Nitrepza for Most Stationary, with 1,026.2519126428 days.
