The Community of Zhotania is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 208 million Zhotanians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 17.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The strong Zhotanian economy, worth 15.4 trillion Zotins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 73,900 Zotins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
Kids are told they can be whoever they want to be when they grow up, crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track, death row inmates cower in fear at the phrase "one-year anniversary", and the government is spending billions of taxpayer Zotins to support "struggling" industries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Zhotania's national animal is the Stork, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Zhotania is ranked 96,625th in the world and 371st in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,966.84 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
