“The Great Wolf Of The West”

The Last of Zanexlan is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Ahmad Hamza Cattaneo with an even hand, and remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 6.648 billion Lanians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alzaim. The average income tax rate is 73.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zanexlania economy, worth 676 trillion Xezlies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 101,801 Xezlies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Feeling like a winner comes at a price, no one born in Zanexlan can fix a leaky faucet, programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, and a historic rise in the minimum wage has crushed the economy with inflation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zanexlan's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sunni and Protestant.

Zanexlan is ranked 28,944^th in the world and 408^th in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 224.98 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
