The Imperial Republic of Zyrcrestia III is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Adolf Stalin Bathory de Robespierre with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, barren, inhospitable landscape, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 29.29 billion Zyrcrestians III love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zyrtulai. The average income tax rate is 2.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zyrcrestian III economy, worth an astonishing 11,692 trillion zyrces a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 399,195 zyrces, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's no such thing as bad publicity, the navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and the tax agency is feared more than serial killers and terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Zyrcrestia III's national animal is the trickster, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Palmarian Catholicism.

Zyrcrestia III is ranked 3,490th in the world and 54th in 10000 Islands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 125.86 law-abiding acts per hour.
