The Autonomous Territories of Zapotiland is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The People with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 2.386 billion Zapotilandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zapotilacty. The average income tax rate is 58.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Zapotilandian economy, worth 62.8 trillion Mutual Aids a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Beef-Based Agriculture, Soda Sales, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 26,310 Mutual Aids, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, the government tells its citizens to 'forgive and forget', selfie stick use is a required Scout badge, and schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students. Crime is totally unknown. Zapotiland's national animal is the Capitalist Pig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zapotiland is ranked 116,481^st in the world and 24^th in Valaryia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 64.08 law-abiding acts per hour.
