The Grand Duchy of Unia Zen is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 3.196 billion Unia Zenians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Public Transport. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bitz. The average income tax rate is 26.2%.

The strong Unia Zenian economy, worth 166 trillion rubles a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 52,210 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Members of the government all have oddly similar anecdotes about their childhoods, conversion therapy coupons are a popular present for coming of age ceremonies, the government is attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector, and Unia Zen has designated Bitz as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Unia Zen's national animal is the cobra.

Unia Zen is ranked 215,402^nd in the world and 85^th in Vristic for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 48.19 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
