The Republic of F oot ball Z is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, compulsory military service, and lack of airports. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.161 billion F oot ball Zians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 36.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong F oot ball Zian economy, worth 112 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 51,942 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The digital money revolution has cashed out, weird or unusual crimes merit cruel and unusual punishments, smoking is banned in public areas, and raccoons are plump and satiated. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. F oot ball Z's national animal is the fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

F oot ball Z is ranked 162,336^th in the world and 673^rd in Concord for Highest Average Incomes, with 51,942.85 Standard Monetary Units.
