OverviewDispatchesPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Ghost Channel of Zebruski is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Null with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, compulsory military service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, devout population of 7.903 billion Nulls are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Null. The average income tax rate is 91.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zebruskian economy, worth a remarkable 1,290 trillion Nulls a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 163,326 Nulls, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A traveller who once stubbed a toe on an Air Brancaland flight has been offered asylum, school plays were recently banned due to concerns of child endangerment, the possibility of gain causes universal pain, and paralegals spend all day Hewlett-Packing attorneys' law briefs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zebruski's national animal is the Null, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Null.

Zebruski is ranked 10,371st in the world and 6th in Callista for Most Cultured, scoring 117 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
