The People's Democracy of Zuha is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by COM-2000 with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.298 billion Comrades love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jiho. The average income tax rate is 90.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zuhan economy, worth 334 trillion Social Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 145,704 Social Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voters are one of the nation's top imports, Bigtopian relations have become a minefield, the saying "when pigs fly" has been changed to "when the lights work", and Jiho spends billions upgrading public transport. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zuha's national animal is the Great Red-Chested Duck, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheeism.

Zuha is ranked 9,580^th in the world and 541^st in Balder for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 90.49 Effective Tax Rate.
