The Armed Forces of Zulankan Outpost 69 is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, complete lack of prisons, and absence of drug laws. The democratic population of 22.353 billion Zulankans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded, outspoken morass — prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Defense also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 74.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Zulankan economy, worth 216 trillion labor certificates 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 a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Trout Farming, Pizza Delivery, Information Technology, and Tourism. 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 9,676 labor certificates, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zulankan Outpost 69's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zulankan Outpost 69 is ranked 172,475^th in the world and 1^st in Hanguk for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 452.41 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
