The Armed Forces of Zulankan Outpost 108 is a gargantuan, genial nation, notable for its public floggings, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 16.681 billion Zulankans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Defense also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 53.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Zulankan economy, worth 278 trillion labor certificates 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, Soda Sales, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. 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 16,674 labor certificates, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown. Zulankan Outpost 108's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zulankan Outpost 108 is ranked 48,934th in the world and 1st in Anti Jewish League for Safest, scoring 103.05 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
