The Federal Socialist Republic of Ziotah and Riverside is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Prime Minister with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, unlimited-speed roads, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic population of 18.529 billion Ziotans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lindon. The average income tax rate is 97.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Ziotan economy, worth a remarkable 2,761 trillion Zios 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 led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 149,028 Zios, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The rich and poor vomit into separate bags, there's an aura of pseudoscience around academia, recent protests against birds flying too low have resulted in bloodshed, and residents of houses built on a foundation of wishful thinking are prone to an odd sinking feeling. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ziotah and Riverside's national animal is the Mountain Blue Jay, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Ziotah and Riverside is ranked 1,905th in the world and 51st in Forest for Most Beautiful Environments, with 3,724.06 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
