The Unified Clans of Zhidaole is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Arctic Administration with an iron fist, and renowned for its national health service, ritual sacrifices, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.326 billion Zhidao are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mungtaebok. The average income tax rate is 96.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Zhidao economy, worth a remarkable 1,087 trillion yins a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 130,582 yins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

What goes down must come up, lonely children write fanfiction about absent fathers, the government has begun breaking all large businesses into thousands of mom-and-pop general stores, and people make a career out of medical voyeurism. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zhidaole's national animal is the crocodile, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Taeyon.

Zhidaole is ranked 4,211th in the world and 1st in MJT for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 96.24 Effective Tax Rate.
