The National Park of Zaporanos is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Rufus Wedgetail with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, ubiquitous missile silos, and national health service. The compassionate population of 4.626 billion Zaporanosians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cryoflame. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Zaporani economy, worth 771 trillion Zaclars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 166,769 Zaclars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Zaporanosians believe manners maketh the leader, groups of government workers are declared protected tribes if they venture too deep into the Capitol, the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, and schoolboys who turn to watch pretty girls go by are given detention. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zaporanos's national animal is the Zaclar's Cryolophosaurus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Zhaposian.

Zaporanos is ranked 11,816^th in the world and 4^th in Kerbals of the North for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 54.76 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
