The Community of Zaeth is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 721 million Zaethians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tower Hills. The average income tax rate is 68.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Zaethian economy, worth 44.3 trillion bunnies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Soda Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 61,413 bunnies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Science fiction is seen as the leading cause of mental breakdowns, choice roles for female actors involve asking "Is there anything I can do for you?", armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough, and turning eighteen is often referred to as the 'Age of Aquarius'. Crime is totally unknown. Zaeth's national animal is the Plesiosaurus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zaeth is ranked 64,025^th in the world and 3^rd in Swallowtail for Safest, scoring 98.01 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
