The Eastern Krai of Ztrana is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Alexey Borodin with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, otherworldly petting zoo, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.07 billion Ztranans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Velikybeligorod. The average income tax rate is 35.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Ztranan economy, worth 113 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an impressive 106,435 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Cheap goods stamped "Made In Dàguó" are increasingly rare, the examiners who examine examiners are being examined by examiners, after every storm there's an expensive government-funded rainbow, and the government is reining in public spending. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ztrana's national animal is the Tundra Swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Ztrana is ranked 98,832^nd in the world and 7^th in Arda en Estel for Safest, scoring 82.63 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
