The Democratic Republic of Zaamuk is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate, democratic population of 372 million Zaamukians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nafelm. The average income tax rate is 75.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Zaamukian economy, worth 21.3 trillion Iguzas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming and Uranium Mining. Average income is 57,284 Iguzas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes, internet moderator is one of the most popular jobs among the nation's more socially awkward citizens, UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news, and raver DJ XStacy holds multiple medical degrees in chillaxing. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zaamuk's national animal is the Kangaroo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zaamuk is ranked 115,089^th in the world and 498^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Authoritarian, with 645.62 milliStalins.
