The Empire of Zerocs is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Vassili Simo with an iron fist, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, prohibition of alcohol, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 17.134 billion Zerocsians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Datlof. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Zerocsian economy, worth a remarkable 2,256 trillion Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 131,720 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Children seem to be getting better at lying these days, insanely good theatre productions face government censorship, the newest shade developed by Zerocs's dye industry has been dubbed 'Agent Orange', and economists have been named Invertebrates of the Year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zerocs's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Zerocs is ranked 4,562nd in the world and 246th in Balder for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 2,857.55 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
