The People's Republic of Zetastan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Zartan Bridgelaw with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, free-roaming dinosaurs, and smutty television. The compassionate, cheerful population of 19.505 billion Zetastanis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zeddagrad. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Zetastani economy, worth a remarkable 7,034 trillion Zetastani Shekels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 360,643 Zetastani Shekels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's democracy attracts huddled masses yearning to breathe free, Zetastani watches are often the only thing to survive a disaster intact, this year's hottest fashion trend is the Lese Majeste collection, and the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Zetastan's national animal is the pheasant-spotted boar, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is State Atheism.

Zetastan is ranked 4,949th in the world and 2nd in The Communist Bloc for Most Stationary, with 3,255.70624968 days.
