The Zone of Tanah Petani is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Governor Jyrone Lryia with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, prohibition of alcohol, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 5.006 billion Kazuoxstaters 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 large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kapenai. The average income tax rate is 75.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Kazuoxstater economy, worth 599 trillion Moneik'rs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 119,692 Moneik'rs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
A government program is underway to revitalize Tanah Petani's beaches, people find it hard to relate to soldiers because of the dehumanising masks they wear, military equipment stores have a tendency to go up in flames, and prankster scientists legally change their names to silly pseudonyms before major discoveries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tanah Petani's national animal is the griffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Children of Kat'herina.
Tanah Petani is ranked 20,076th in the world and 3rd in Zero for Lowest Crime Rates, with 89.26 law-abiding acts per hour.
