The Zephyrs of Zerphen is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Crow Ellie with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, ban on automobiles, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.799 billion Zerphii hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 97.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Zerphii economy, worth 895 trillion Zecks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 154,371 Zecks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation locks people up and tells them they're mad for compassion's sake, the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, and kids' party bags often contain candy and e-cigarettes. Crime is totally unknown. Zerphen's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Zerphen is ranked 8,148^th in the world and 71^st in Forest for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 56.53 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
