The Florida Man of Zoran is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Atsila Ani'-Wah' with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, daily referendums, and ritual sacrifices. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 8.867 billion Zoranians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous government prioritizes Healthcare, with Education, Industry, and Environment also on the agenda, while Law & Order isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Zoradia. The average income tax rate is 67.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zoranian economy, worth 686 trillion Zorallas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,404 Zorallas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Federal Council of Zoran has been announced as the new Head of State, open-heart surgery is taught in seminaries, gossip magazines are more interested in astrological stars than celebrity ones, and explicit slash fiction is repackaged for kindergarten kids as stories about friends cuddling friends. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Zoran's national animal is the Platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Zonethos.

Zoran is ranked 259,312th in the world and 3,221st in the West Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -7.84 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
