The United Kingdom of Zachais is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Zach with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 25.714 billion Zachians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass — juggles the competing demands of Environment, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andirfell. The average income tax rate is 92.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zachian economy, worth a remarkable 2,411 trillion Xronas a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 93,800 Xronas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Zach's perky ego is the talk of the town, citizens no longer take selfies with their dead relatives at funerals, the military maintains a fierce arsenal of 'Cure Missiles', and truck drivers turn their engines off and coast whenever they're going downhill. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zachais's national animal is the Anarikamo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hyannaku.

Zachais is ranked 329,544th in the world and 675th in 10000 Islands for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -25.73 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
