The Republic of Zukonia is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 166 million Zukonians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 55.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but sluggish Zukonian economy, worth 3.44 trillion Zoinks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 20,740 Zoinks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Code enforcement officers circle wealthy Zukonians like vultures, government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, and it is said that the captain goes down with the ship but ecological protection goes up. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zukonia's national animal is the Secretary Bird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Zukonia is ranked 303,942nd in the world and 1,602nd in the Plains of Perdition for Highest Average Incomes, with 20,740.71 Standard Monetary Units.
