The Republic of Zuffix is a huge, safe nation, notable for its aversion to nipples, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 653 million Zuffixians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zuffix City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 30.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Zuffixian economy, worth 83.9 trillion souroes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 128,537 souroes, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 520,110 per year while the poor average 21,174, a ratio of 24.6 to 1.

College students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, gay couples have to travel to Brancaland to find a church that will actually let them wed, trolls insist that strings of racial slurs mean "good morning" in obscure languages, and the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop. Crime is totally unknown. Zuffix's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Zuffix is ranked 295,311^th in the world and 474^th in The Frontier Sea for Largest Black Market, with 28.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
