The Armed Forces of Zulankan Outpost 19 is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 18.068 billion Zulankans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Defense also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 71.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Zulankan economy, worth 189 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, broadly diversified black market in Pizza Delivery, Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. 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 10,486 labor certificates, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zulankan Outpost 19's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zulankan Outpost 19 is ranked 70,573^rd in the world and 1^st in Saxon Plains for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 430.77 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
