The Theocracy of Zukiya is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, devout population of 413 million Zuyki 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zuyiki. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 34.6%.

The strong Zukis economy, worth 33.5 trillion Arbøn ₺s 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 Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Gambling. 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 81,151 Arbøn ₺s, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 370,163 per year while the poor average 10,856, a ratio of 34.1 to 1.

The government has adopted a "Lightning Never Strikes Twice" approach to dealing with natural disasters, birth rates have hit an all-time low, tax revenue is often intercepted by international accountants before ever seeing the national treasury, and a few immigrants are better than no immigrants according to Leader. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Zukiya's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Zukiya is ranked 64,724th in the world and 48th in Christians for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 3,946.67 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
