The United States of Zig Solen is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its daily referendums, complete lack of public education, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 1.423 billion Zig Solenians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Environment and Spirituality receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 28.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Zig Solenian economy, worth 178 trillion Baht a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 125,358 Baht, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast, no bunny expects the Zig Solenian rabbit coalition, pirates armed with sonar-guided semi-autonomous torpedos and laser weapons systems are often seen capturing fishing trawlers, and rural Zig Solenians stare in awe at the bright lights of the big cities. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Zig Solen's national animal is the Cow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Zig Solen is ranked 310,393rd in the world and 446th in Bozarkia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -21.68 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
