The Kingdom of Zekyll is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by King Andrew with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.953 billion Zekylls are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government prioritizes Education, although Law & Order, Environment, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Seoul. The average income tax rate is 81.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Zekyll economy, worth 511 trillion EURS a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 85,842 EURS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The canal flows through the land like a twisty turny thing, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, pet owners must make a payment if their charges leave a deposit, and 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zekyll's national animal is the dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zekyll is ranked 25,097th in the world and 6th in The Pacifica for Lowest Crime Rates, with 90.48 law-abiding acts per hour.
