Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The State of Twenty Five Zero is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 31.319 billion Twenty Five Zeroans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The very strong Twenty Five Zeroan economy, worth a remarkable 1,271 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is 40,611 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 276,105 per year while the poor average 2,182, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary and Twenty Five Zero has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Twenty Five Zero's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Twenty Five Zero is ranked 5,312^th in the world and 598^th in State for Largest Populations, with 31.3 billion capita.
