OverviewDispatchesPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Republic of Zelaraj is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, democratic population of 533 million Zelarajis hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stymverkya. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.7%.

The strong Zelarajian economy, worth 27.1 trillion Zerokalizpivs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 50,914 Zerokalizpivs, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, ironic death by tasering is on the rise amongst door-to-door taser salesmen, Falcon is one of the most popular forenames in Zelaraj, and Zelaraj has designated Stymverkya as its capital city. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Zelaraj's national animal is the Falcon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Zelaraj is ranked 128,297th in the world and 4,725th in Lazarus for Most Extreme, scoring 20.73 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
