The Federation of Zemona is a massive, genial nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working population of 1.46 billion Zemonans 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Naul. The average income tax rate is 69.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Zemonan economy, worth 114 trillion Zils a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 78,397 Zils, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Farting etiquette is taught in schools, the acceptance of acupuncture and other alternative therapies has needled the scientific community, the government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, and lawyers are ordering red ink and 'Cease and Desist' rubber stamps in preparation for the return of copyright law. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zemona's national animal is the Mantis, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zemona is ranked 51,413^th in the world and 116^th in The Union of Democratic States for Best Weather, with 115 Meters Of Sunlight.
