The Community of Zemis is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 955 million Zemisians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 9.3%.

The strong Zemisian economy, worth 43.1 trillion computers a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 45,148 computers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Zemis's national animal is the cat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Zemis is ranked 188,607^th in the world and 462^nd in Empire of Great Britain for Nicest Citizens, with 12 average smiles per day.
