The Empire of ZhangKeyesland is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Emperor Justin Zhang with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, infamous sell-swords, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 11.071 billion Zhangkeyeslandians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Baltimore. The average income tax rate is 90.7%.

The frighteningly efficient ZhangKeyeslandian economy, worth a remarkable 4,843 trillion kek nabs a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 437,486 kek nabs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

The welfare administration's new sweeping authority has forced the poor and needy to shop from pre-approved grocery lists, deceased politicians' MyFace profiles are unanimously pro-incumbent, the nation's reputation for treachery has left it sidelined on the international stage, and supermarket milk is a shear-thickening fluid that can stop small-caliber bullets. Crime is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. ZhangKeyesland's national animal is the dog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

ZhangKeyesland is ranked 45,660th in the world and 870th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 4,991.36 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
