The People's Republic of Zakva is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 3.197 billion Zakvans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Horiastov. The average income tax rate is 60.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Zakvan economy, worth 91.4 trillion Ƙřæzŧàs a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 28,593 Ƙřæzŧàs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pushy mums tell their kids to be doctors and engineers but steer them away from being penniless lawyers, schoolboys who turn to watch pretty girls go by are given detention, stony-faced ratings board panelists are unamused by free lap dances, and creating cardboard imitations of missiles is a new top-secret military project. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zakva's national animal is the Zakvan Great bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zakva is ranked 118,396^th in the world and 4^th in Chordis for Lowest Crime Rates, with 64.48 law-abiding acts per hour.
