The Republic of Zytronia is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.784 billion Zytronians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Welfare, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Zytronian economy, worth 409 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 108,159 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 321,117 per year while the poor average 28,579, a ratio of 11.2 to 1.

Schools offer a range of lessons in subjects as diverse as The Economics of Bullying for Lunch Money, citizens' names are redacted on their IDs for national security, foreign casinos have trouble paying fans who bet on the Zytronia City Owls' triumph against long odds, and bands of adventurers rove the countryside searching for monsters. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Zytronia's national animal is the owl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Zytronia is ranked 170,743^rd in the world and 3,632^nd in Artificial Solar System for Most Primitive, scoring -65.5 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
