The Holy Empire of Z e r o is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, parental licensing program, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 3.094 billion Z e r oans 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 72.0%.

The powerhouse Z e r oan economy, worth 295 trillion Golds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 95,543 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

Leader signs the laws but abides by none of them, the dictionary is a common first book for children, some Z e r oans have nicknamed the monarch "Caligula", and all citizens are solely referenced by their allocated identity number. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Z e r o's national animal is the Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Z e r o is ranked 173,692^nd in the world and 3^rd in Number for Largest Populations, with 3.09 billion capita.
