The Principality of Zadok is a small, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, cynical population of 40 million Zadokians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 28.6%.

The Zadokian economy, worth 2.03 trillion litrus a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 50,862 litrus, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Surveillance cameras are banned, children must be board certified to append "Jr" to their name, political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, and college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zadok's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Zadok is ranked 160,251^st in the world and 1^st in Transylvania for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 28.59 Effective Tax Rate.
