The Republic of Zendo 54 is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its digital currency, keen interest in outer space, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 16 million Zendo 54ians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 23.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Zendo 54ian economy, worth 749 billion zens a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 46,830 zens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.
Some are born loving old plays and some have old plays thrust upon them, compass sales have gone south, owning a really cute pet is grounds for immediate investigation, and candlelit dinners are less romantic with a flickering LED. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zendo 54's national animal is the zen.
Zendo 54 is ranked 34,287th in the world and 12th in Yamagata for Safest, scoring 107.49 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
