The State of Zwanzig Sieben is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 31.755 billion Zwanzig Siebenians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, although Welfare and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and Law & Order aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.

The very strong Zwanzig Siebenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,462 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 46,062 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 313,169 per year while the poor average 2,475, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Euthanasia is legal, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, Zwanzig Sieben's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, and the government is avowedly atheist. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Zwanzig Sieben's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Zwanzig Sieben is ranked 193,445^th in the world and 1^st in Free Will for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring zero on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
