The Eight United States of Zukchiva is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Zoyral Seveni with a fair hand, and notable for its frequent executions, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.593 billion Zukchivans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Seveni. The average income tax rate is 81.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zukchivan economy, worth 327 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 126,272 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common, much of Zukchiva's computer network is controlled by a rampant artificial intelligence, and there have been sightings of people walking around dressed in nothing but leopard-skin g-strings for 'religious reasons'. Crime is totally unknown. Zukchiva's national animal is the Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zukchiva is ranked 7,479^th in the world and 191^st in The East Pacific for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 79.08 Workforce Participation Rate.
