The Unfriendly Zombie Land of Kwaj is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Amata Kabua with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory vegetarianism, complete lack of prisons, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 15.3 billion Kwajians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Coral Sands. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Kwajian economy, worth a remarkable 2,906 trillion Clams a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 189,950 Clams, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Forestry Department has decided you really can't fight fire with fire, glamping Kwajians won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi, orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents, and government-sanctioned factory-smashing has the Luddites of Kwaj rejoicing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kwaj's national animal is the Hermit Crab, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is The Almighty Atomic Overlord.

Kwaj is ranked 246th in the world and 14th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 36,239.99 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
