The Free Union of Zeklandia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Zeklandia the Great with an even hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 19.538 billion Zeklandren enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Seklanden. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Zeklandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,268 trillion National Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Information Technology industry. Average income is an impressive 167,281 National Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's a lot of mouth-breathers about these days, pretending to be prejudiced is a good way to get out of jury duty, political spontaneity takes a lot of planning, and kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zeklandia's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Zeklandia is ranked 240,578th in the world and 755th in 10000 Islands for Most Stationary, with 21.73427081228 days.
