The Zephyrs of Zerphen is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Crow Ellie with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.862 billion Zerphii hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 97.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Zerphii economy, worth a remarkable 1,065 trillion Zecks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 155,322 Zecks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The comic book series 'Crow Ellie and the Villainous Corporate Cronies' is a best-seller, visiting the best Zerphii restaurants requires keeping a visa on file, one can wake up in Zerphen and have breakfast in Bigtopia, and bitter pastors forced to officiate gay marriage 'accidentally' pronounce couples "husband and abomination". Crime is totally unknown. Zerphen's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Zerphen is ranked 304,610th in the world and 265th in Forest for Most Primitive, scoring -418.14 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
