The Immortal Daimyo of Knights of Zion is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Lord KoZ with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, enslaved workforce, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20.824 billion Knights of Zionians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Knights of Zion City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Knights of Zionian economy, worth an astonishing 12,447 trillion KoZ-kokus a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is a breathtaking 597,724 KoZ-kokus, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 5,029,908 per year while the poor average 13,381, a ratio of 375 to 1.

The nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle, private business has started paving paradises and putting up parking lots, the nation has recently been attributed to the funding of terrorist organisations, and the military has had to quell a recent insurrection by uninsured revolutionaries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Knights of Zion's national animal is the white elk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is a major religion.

Knights of Zion is ranked 92nd in the world and 1st in Feudal Japan for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 18,485.01 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
