The Glorious Empire of Zarogovnia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Drägomîr Ivanovich with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.703 billion Zarogovnesti enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zaraetlingrad. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Zarogovnian economy, worth a remarkable 1,582 trillion Sparvitzes 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 major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 181,809 Sparvitzes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Behind every local dictator is a Zarogovnian advisor whispering in their ear, the nation's most "productive" diamond mine hasn't been operational for seven months, 100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past, and the government funds large training centres to turn Giant Bears into functioning members of society. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zarogovnia's national animal is the Giant Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zarogovnia is ranked 3,887^th in the world and 95^th in The Communist Bloc for Highest Food Quality, scoring 225.52 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
