The Warrior Within of Chocolate Zen is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 12.122 billion Zen love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Environment, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 76.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but underdeveloped Zen economy, worth 402 trillion Sweets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Pizza Delivery, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Book Publishing, and Gambling. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 33,226 Sweets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chocolate Zen's national animal is the Fly, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Chocolate Zen is ranked 87,721st in the world and 7th in Singapore for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,456.65 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
