The Last of Zanexlan is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by King Ahmad Hamza Cattaneo with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, frequent executions, and ubiquitous missile silos. The cynical, devout population of 6.574 billion Lanians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alzaim. The average income tax rate is 72.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zanexlania economy, worth 688 trillion Xezlies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,656 Xezlies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Feeling like a winner comes at a price, no one born in Zanexlan can fix a leaky faucet, programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, and a historic rise in the minimum wage has crushed the economy with inflation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zanexlan's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sunni and Protestant.

Zanexlan is ranked 16,899^th in the world and 331^st in Europe for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,145.25 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
