The Federal Republic of Jzonim is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Haisg de ranol with an even hand, and notable for its enslaved workforce, sprawling nuclear power plants, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 5.606 billion Jzoniman are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kayapa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Jzonimian economy, worth 752 trillion Vuos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 134,221 Vuos, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 668,441 per year while the poor average 15,210, a ratio of 43.9 to 1.

Nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, decades-serving politicians are now both out of touch and out of time, conscientious objectors are hanged as traitors, and old folks yearn for the days when young people saw bloodthirsty death matches with their own eyes instead of through a screen. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jzonim's national animal is the Kayapis, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Fietge.

Jzonim is ranked 293,047^th in the world and 824^th in Council of Asia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -7.1 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
