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

The Just of Tzo is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Citizen with a fair hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, complete lack of prisons, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 34.283 billion Tzoans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, outspoken government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Serenity. The income tax rate is 100%.

The enormous but underdeveloped Tzoan economy, worth a remarkable 9,191 trillion Units a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an amazing 268,111 Units, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, kids these days know how to throw a proper punch, Citizen's office has a newly installed Max-Man arcade game programmed by a 5th-grader, and dinner parties often end in politically charged fist fights. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tzo's national animal is the Albatros, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tzo is ranked 220,867^th in the world and 1,461^st in 10000 Islands for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring -10417 on the Hayek Index.
