The Commonwealth of Zepolmar is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 870 million Zepolmarians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The tiny government prioritizes Spirituality, although Defense and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Healthcare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zepol. The average income tax rate is 9.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Zepolmarian economy, worth 38.7 trillion rontas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 44,515 rontas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

You don't need a smoking gun to arrest someone for promoting guns, the industries of Zepolmar are coughing all the way to the bank, foreign governments are threatened if they so much as mention the word "election", and the nation is wading into dangerous waters. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Zepolmar's national animal is the seal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Zepolmar is ranked 258,149^th in the world and 403^rd in Starlight for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides, with 1.77 Rich To Poor Income Ratio.
