The Queendom of Zvetlana is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, national health service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 28.93 billion Zvetlanans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zvetgrad. The average income tax rate is 82.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zvetlanan economy, worth a remarkable 4,245 trillion Zvets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 146,735 Zvets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leader's exquisite office door is replaced monthly due to angry petitioners, motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours, the breathalyser pledge is a traditional part of marriages in Zvetlana, and it's been a banner year for local vexillology. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zvetlana's national animal is the Lana, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zvetlana is ranked 233,278th in the world and 6,945th in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 23.2346031854 days.
