The Unitary State of Zimmerdachen

“Ethics are just holding us back”

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

The Unitary State of Zimmerdachen is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Glorious Sun Leader with an iron fist, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 16.841 billion Zimmerdens are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haben. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Zimmerdachian economy, worth a remarkable 5,643 trillion Rauns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 335,075 Rauns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,026,712 per year while the poor average 84,648, a ratio of 12.1 to 1.

Most pop videos prominently feature the Zimmerdachian flag, an online tea-bagging epidemic is getting worse and (meta)worse, the suicide rate mysteriously skyrockets during census years, and the fate of the world literally rests on Glorious Sun Leader's fingers. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Zimmerdachen's national animal is the Frog, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Zimmerdachen is ranked 23,856^th in the world and 1,804^th in Lazarus for Most Patriotic, with 49.43 flags saluted per person per day.
