“The world shall be united under socialism”

Overview • Factbook • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The United Socialist States of Zhinoria is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.49 billion Zhinorians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zhinoria City. The average income tax rate is 76.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Zhinorian economy, worth 25.8 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 17,312 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

You need two tenors and a coloratura contralto to sing the national anthem properly, kindergarten teachers with ankle-bracelets are closely supervised by their parole officers, all weapon research has been banned, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zhinoria's national animal is the Axolotl, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Zhinoria is ranked 124,765^th in the world and 514^th in Europeia for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 895.62 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
