The NewAgeUnitarianUniversalism of Zen Buddha is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Won Kennedy with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, enforced nudity, and punitive income tax rates. The quiet, industrious population of 32.675 billion Zen Buddhans 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zen City. The average income tax rate is 60.6%.

The Zen Buddhan economy, worth a remarkable 1,122 trillion zen koans a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 34,361 zen koans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

All guns must be registered, giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Won Kennedy is a silly poophead, the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists, and power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Zen Buddha's national animal is the beautiful butterfly, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Tao and Zen.

Zen Buddha is ranked 179,904th in the world and 1st in Blackbats for Most Corrupt Governments, with 2.92 kickbacks per hour.
