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

The Republic of Zoowanatou is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Ndiangui Waititu with an iron fist, and renowned for its flagrant waste-dumping, infamous sell-swords, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.966 billion Zoowanatouans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Francistown. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Zoowanatouan economy, worth a remarkable 1,408 trillion Dollars a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 108,625 Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 341,176 per year while the poor average 26,480, a ratio of 12.9 to 1.

Prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, politicians tack on a service charge for assisting with casework, the "give and take" of international diplomacy often happens at gunpoint, and citizens are expected to be proficient in at least five languages. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Zoowanatou's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Animism.

Zoowanatou is ranked 41,925^th in the world and 26^th in Africa for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
