The Federation of Zavea is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Langley with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 32.129 billion Zaveans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oured. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Zavean economy, worth an astonishing 15,830 trillion Zavean Standard Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 492,717 Zavean Standard Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Social networking sites have discussion groups devoted to planning terrorist attacks, noises louder than a whisper have been prohibited by law, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, and the military maintains a fierce arsenal of 'Cure Missiles'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zavea's national animal is the Angel Dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Zavea is ranked 8^th in the world and 1^st in the Rejected Realms for Most Cultured, scoring 1,703 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
