The Empire of Zennit is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Zahard Yassin Zenit with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 3.629 billion Zennitians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zenit City. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Zennitian economy, worth 377 trillion Zenits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,115 Zenits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Artists attempt to convince the Hardship Fund that their unmade bed is a masterpiece, women who walk into the ladies' changing room are accused of being Peeping Toms, the government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion, and there's a hole in the heart of every Zennitian city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zennit's national animal is the Shylily, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Apostolic Catholicism.

Zennit is ranked 27,336^th in the world and 1,601^st in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 83 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
