The Republic of Zucte Gremeis is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, sprawling nuclear power plants, and unlimited-speed roads. The quiet, industrious population of 667 million Zucte Gremeisians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rome. The average income tax rate is 43.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Zucte Gremeisian economy, worth 67.0 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 100,385 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The moral worth of national allies is judged by their GDP, Super Barry Brothers is the most popular video game in the nation, students abandon classrooms for online education, and artificial intelligences seeking exciting work are overcome with ennui. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zucte Gremeis's national animal is the Italian Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zucte Gremeis is ranked 241,797^th in the world and 133^rd in Magna Aurea for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -6.63 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
