The Confederated Islands of Zanforadon is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Divine Sovereign Zan Xeranosis with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.029 billion Zanfaras are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zankatorna. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Zanfa economy, worth a remarkable 1,208 trillion Draconics a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 240,350 Draconics, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Preschools put children down for naps with milk, cookies, and a gruesome story of vengeance, young people crowd pizza parlors praying to 'The Supreme Pizza, His Immaculate Munchiness', religious figures have been banned from public holidays to make them more multicultural, and political satirists and late night comedians weep as the government begins cleaning up its act. Crime is totally unknown. Zanforadon's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Xoh'hoto.

Zanforadon is ranked 282,952nd in the world and 5,233rd in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -13.44 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
