The People's Commonwealth of Nueva Zulia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by The People with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, hatred of cheese, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.401 billion Nueva Zulians 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, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Enaciud. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Nueva Zulian economy, worth 672 trillion Pan-dólars 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 mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 152,855 Pan-dólars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The transition from trojan horses to regular old horses is on track, crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed, the government is constantly producing new maps to accommodate the continual renaming of cities, and the Museum of Blackacrean War Crimes is located on "Blackacre Did Nothing Wrong Avenue". Crime is totally unknown. Nueva Zulia's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is None.

Nueva Zulia is ranked 39,508^th in the world and 89^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Stationary, with 744.17943344708 days.
