The United Socialist States of Zestsrealia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by General Secretary Damian E Robbins with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 3.217 billion Zestsrealians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tereve. The average income tax rate is 89.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The Zestsrealian economy, worth 201 trillion Coronas 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 Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 62,562 Coronas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Bitter pastors forced to officiate gay marriage 'accidentally' pronounce couples "husband and abomination", extreme political groups are outlawed, high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, and Occam's razor has sliced to pieces any childhood belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zestsrealia's national animal is the Felis Catus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is No Established Religion.
Zestsrealia is ranked 46,489th in the world and 3rd in Communist and Socialist World Congress for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 5,639.95 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
