The Dominion of Zanbaros is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Bask Om with an iron fist, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, frequent executions, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 24.847 billion Zanbarosians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order is also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jaburo. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 36.0%.
The very strong Zanbarosian economy, worth a remarkable 2,422 trillion dominion vouchers a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 97,515 dominion vouchers, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 399,009 per year while the poor average 15,767, a ratio of 25.3 to 1.
New pilots are regularly reminded that they are more expendable than their planes, exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, and jail house rock has been replaced with jail house golden oldies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Zanbaros's national animal is the Zanbarian Cobra, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Zanbaros is ranked 1,780th in the world and 3rd in Union of Free Nations for Most Stationary, with 4,158.66400512 days.
