The Corrupt Partisan Tribunal of Zeu is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by The Tribunal with an iron fist, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, unlimited-speed roads, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 6.166 billion Zeuans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Denver. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 46.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Zeua economy, worth a remarkable 1,595 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 258,729 Dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,791,820 per year while the poor average 13,129, a ratio of 136 to 1.

Modern warfare's call of duty isn't popular with gamers these days, edutainment video games are taking Zeu's students to the next level, tardiness has increased after carpooling was classified as a criminal offense, and comedians who make offensive jokes have their ticket proceeds seized. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zeu's national animal is the Bull Moose, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Anti-Creationism.

Zeu is ranked 54,931^st in the world and 120^th in Starlight for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 3,014.61 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
