The People's Republic of Ziprotscria is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Shimtaenek Atkunsinkar with a fair hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.56 billion Ziprotscrians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Katyushankret. The average income tax rate is 66.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ziprotscrian economy, worth 684 trillion Risenkas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 123,077 Risenkas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Shimtaenek Atkunsinkar is considering changing the Ziprotscrian flag to one with more glitter, ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools, citizens know never to accept cookies from strangers, and 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Ziprotscria's radio stations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ziprotscria's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ziprotscria is ranked 25,263^rd in the world and 975^th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 85 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
