The Fascio-Integralist Republic of Zarvice is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Rzekiviec Kokardovsky with an iron fist, and remarkable for its enslaved workforce, free-roaming dinosaurs, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.553 billion Zarviceans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vosztek. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Zarvicean economy, worth a remarkable 1,514 trillion orskas 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. 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 an amazing 272,802 orskas, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

Edgy teens know that illegal discos are where the cool cats hang, foreign nationals who stumble near Zarvice are harbingers of war, panicking criminals no longer flush contraband down the toilet, and children who believe in the tooth fairy are frequently shipped off to Bigtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zarvice's national animal is the falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Zarvice is ranked 313,816^th in the world and 220^th in Fifth Empire for Most Politically Free, scoring zero on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
