The Zoo of Simone Republic is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Simone with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 15.571 billion Simonians 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 Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mona. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Simonian economy, worth a remarkable 6,524 trillion Mones a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 418,992 Mones, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,893,959 per year while the poor average 56,977, a ratio of 33.2 to 1.

Clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions, a five-year-old and a convicted terrorist can sit alongside one another in jury service, there have been reports of people marrying housepets, and minor code style errors dull the house edge. Crime is totally unknown. Simone Republic's national animal is the Salmon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is God.

Simone Republic is ranked 47,985^th in the world and 951^st in The North Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 56,977.41 Standard Monetary Units.
