The Zoo of Simone Republic is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Simone with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, anti-smoking policies, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 15.306 billion Simonians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mona. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Simonian economy, worth a remarkable 6,365 trillion Mones a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 415,854 Mones, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,940,976 per year while the poor average 53,332, a ratio of 36.4 to 1.

Scientists take credit every time it rains in The North Pacific, today's secret ingredients are blood, sweat, and tears, the Mona State Museum is said to be haunted by ghastly musicians playing 'Nearer Violet to Thee', and juries deliberate more than magic 8-balls. Crime is totally unknown. Simone Republic's national animal is the Salmon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is God.

Simone Republic is ranked 307,399^th in the world and 4,610^th in The North Pacific for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -29.5 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
