The Republic of Zeternia is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Thomas W Dexter with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, infamous sell-swords, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 26.495 billion Zeternians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zeternia City. The average income tax rate is 99.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Zeternian economy, worth a remarkable 5,487 trillion Zets a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 207,113 Zets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Repurposed warships fire swag at company promotional events, the government single-handedly sustains the bunk bed market, the government guarantees that tourists will have the ultimate trip on their trips, and the trail of chickpeas is a controversial part of middle school curriculum. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zeternia's national animal is the Flying Ham, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Zeternia is ranked 764^th in the world and 34^th in Balder for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 17,148.77 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
