The Republic of Zena is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, enslaved workforce, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.006 billion Zenéixi 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 Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zena. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Zenéize economy, worth a remarkable 1,473 trillion Zenovìns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 163,614 Zenovìns, with the richest citizens earning 9.7 times as much as the poorest.

The government has declared its commitment to multilateralism, it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, sex education has become an intricate maze of stick figures and complex metaphors, and newborns are being raised as mindless killing machines. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zena's national animal is the Grifón, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Zena is ranked 44,146^th in the world and 358^th in the West Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,087.44 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
