The Republic of Shinzshaulinia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, parental licensing program, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.886 billion Shinzshaulinians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 8.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Shinzshaulinian economy, worth a remarkable 1,593 trillion Evil Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 231,399 Evil Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

The government spends more on chasing distant comets than on basic infrastructure, Leader has no checks and balances after the upper house was abolished, the nation has always been at war with Bigtopia, and concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Shinzshaulinia's national animal is the Dodo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Shinzshaulinia is ranked 1,524th in the world and 14th in Worlds of Colors for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 211,035.95 Standard Monetary Units.
