The Federal Republic of Zamimbia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Ricards Abiwole with an iron fist, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, compulsory military service, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 17.935 billion Zamimbians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Environment, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Hope. The average income tax rate is 90.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Zamimbian economy, worth a remarkable 1,538 trillion Zamimbian Sovs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 85,804 Zamimbian Sovs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Foreign workers are flooding in as Zamimbian Sovs flood out, expensive lawyers are hired to defend citizens in court for public urination charges against their pets, all new "spies" are fifteen-year-old acne-ridden kids on computers, and major cities run on potato batteries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zamimbia's national animal is the rhino, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.
Zamimbia is ranked 41,114th in the world and 6th in Western Atlantic for Most Corrupt Governments, with 52.19 kickbacks per hour.
