The Florida Man of Zoran is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Atsila Ani'-Wah' with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 14.045 billion Zoranians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Zoradia. The average income tax rate is 69.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zoranian economy, worth a remarkable 1,028 trillion Adelas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,216 Adelas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Gossip magazines are more interested in astrological stars than celebrity ones, explicit slash fiction is repackaged for kindergarten kids as stories about friends cuddling friends, stylish juvenile delinquents are highly overrepresented in fatal motorcycle accidents, and the government refuses to be a part of any international organization run by 'elites'. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Zoran's national animal is the Platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Zonethos.

Zoran is ranked 163,726^th in the world and 1,192^nd in the West Pacific for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 7,564.81 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
