The Most Serene Republic of Zheng Fa is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, infamous sell-swords, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 268 million Zheng Fans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novofan'sk. The average income tax rate is 9.6%.
The all-consuming Zheng Fan economy, worth 28.5 trillion Fan Yuan a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 106,187 Fan Yuan, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.
The national sporting identity is represented by a talking burger and a singing smartphone, the government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups, coffee cups have grown in size to accommodate the huge ingredients list, and attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zheng Fa's national animal is the Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Zheng Fa is ranked 41,196th in the world and 1st in Z H I R E G A N C for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 173.69 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
