The State of Zymurgy Primus is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 38.609 billion Zymurgy Primusians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The minute, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The powerhouse Zymurgy Primusian economy, worth a remarkable 2,181 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 56,494 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 384,094 per year while the poor average 3,035, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, a major religion has been named as Zymurgy Primus's national religion, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, and Zymurgy Primus has designated District City as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Zymurgy Primus's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Zymurgy Primus is ranked 328,147^th in the world and 464^th in State for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring -4.47 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
