The Zoo of Simone Republic is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Simone with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 15.179 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 6.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Simonian economy, worth a remarkable 6,260 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 412,470 Mones, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,994,766 per year while the poor average 49,478, a ratio of 40.3 to 1.

People transfer their assets to bank accounts in Manamana before getting divorced, scientific progress marches ever forward with the first ever launch of a cheeseburger into space, scientists take credit every time it rains in The North Pacific, and today's secret ingredients are blood, sweat, and tears. 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 7,800^th in the world and 131^st in The North Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 182.6 kickbacks per hour.
