The Commonwealth of Zepolmar is a massive, safe nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, barren, inhospitable landscape, and irreverence towards religion.

State-owned companies are common. Average income is 44,736 rontas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Zepolmar's national animal is the seal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
