The Multinational Corporations of Zaqise is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by the Chairman of Laws'R'Us Ltd with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, public floggings, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 4.513 billion Zaqiseans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, although Defense and Administration are also considered important, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mbadi N'gouma. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Zaqisean economy, worth a remarkable 1,580 trillion zaqisean dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 350,310 zaqisean dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,225,230 per year while the poor average 3,871, a ratio of 833 to 1.

School lockers are filled with fancy underwear, behind every local dictator is a Zaqisean advisor whispering in their ear, the realistic depiction of tentacles is on the core syllabus of most art schools, and the controversial show 'Who Wants to be an Immigrant?' has become wildly popular. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Zaqise's national animal is the oviraptor, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Rampant and Unchecked Individualism.

Zaqise is ranked 147,220th in the world and 46th in Sovereign Corporate League for Largest Populations, with 4.51 billion capita.
