The Oppressed Peoples of Zerocomm is a small, genial nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 36 million Zerocommians 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 juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 8.8%.

The strong Zerocommian economy, worth 1.99 trillion Monkeys a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Soda Sales. Average income is 55,281 Monkeys , and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

All footpaths have tollbooths, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service, and traffic tickets are punishable by 9000 push-ups. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Zerocomm's national animal is the Monkey, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Zerocomm is ranked 308,574^th in the world and 96^th in Sancturia for Largest Black Market, with 9.00 billion Standard Monetary Units.
