The People's Republic of Ziprotscria is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Shimtaenek Davídovich Bronstein with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.869 billion Ziprotscrians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Katyushankret. The average income tax rate is 90.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ziprotscrian economy, worth a remarkable 1,052 trillion Risenkas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 153,197 Risenkas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, the nation has nearly as many history museums as Ziprotscrians, the caged-bird trade is singing, and the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms. Crime is totally unknown. Ziprotscria's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Nakareshism.

Ziprotscria is ranked 310,448^th in the world and 5,748^th in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -508.03 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
