The Republic of Zstantvia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by President Nathaniel Reed with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 2.038 billion Zstantvians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Serenfall. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zstantvian economy, worth 299 trillion Zstantian Dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 146,997 Zstantian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm, teens are voting on which C-List pop star will be next to be evicted from the opera house, psychiatrists bizarrely accompany President Nathaniel Reed to meetings with foreign heads of state, and foreign governments are threatened if they so much as mention the word "election". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zstantvia's national animal is the Snow leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Non-denominational.

Zstantvia is ranked 10,251^st in the world and 2^nd in Federation Of Sovereign States for Largest Governments, scoring 35.81 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
