The Empire of Zamnation is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Grand Council of Fascism with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 1.991 billion Zamnationians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, pro-business government is dominated by the Department of Spirituality, with Law & Order, Defense, and Administration also on the agenda, while Environment is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Temes. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.3%.

The thriving Zamnationian economy, worth 132 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 66,451 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 287,183 per year while the poor average 9,785, a ratio of 29.3 to 1.

Naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, there's never a spare chair in the retirement home, and the Federal Council of Zamnation has been announced as the new Head of State. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Zamnation's national animal is the bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

Zamnation is ranked 260,942^nd in the world and 1,933^rd in the Rejected Realms for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 39.43 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
