The Armed Forces of Zulankan Outpost 116 is a gargantuan, genial nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 16.383 billion Zulankans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Defense also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 48.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Zulankan economy, worth 295 trillion labor certificates a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, Tourism, and Pizza Delivery. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 18,018 labor certificates, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown. Zulankan Outpost 116's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zulankan Outpost 116 is ranked 248,204^th in the world and 1^st in The White Guard for Highest Food Quality, scoring 7.75 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
