The Terrible Influence of Zazumo is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by A corrupt leader with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, smutty television, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.805 billion Nerds have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Parts Unknown. The average income tax rate is 72.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nerd economy, worth a remarkable 1,902 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 161,184 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

A common response to government PSAs is "well, DUH, obviously", courtrooms can be a little sketchy, signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars, and there's no representation without taxation. Crime is totally unknown. Zazumo's national animal is the Doggo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nachos.

Zazumo is ranked 198,426^th in the world and 8,634^th in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -372.25 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
