The Constitutional Monarchy of Ziter is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Alexander Zimmerman with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 3.104 billion Ziterians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zite. The average income tax rate is 29.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Ziterian economy, worth 249 trillion Eitoes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,268 Eitoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The internet has been placed under government control, adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, hedge fund managers are diversifying into herbaceous borders, and party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ziter's national animal is the Bluebird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Agnostic.

Ziter is ranked 100,922^nd in the world and 622^nd in the Plains of Perdition for Most Corrupt Governments, with 14.64 kickbacks per hour.
