The Plutocratic Banana Republic of Zerentopia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King CEO President Johan Liebert with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 17.511 billion Zerentopias are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Central City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Zerentopian economy, worth a remarkable 8,740 trillion Braxes a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 499,149 Braxes, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.

Pollution is on the rise along with government approvals of fracking projects, owning a tractor is widely regarded as an essential prerequisite to most government positions, urban high-volume mailers now receive their mail via chauffeur-driven limousines, and boot polish is the favourite lip gloss of entry-level corporate workers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Zerentopia's national animal is the Phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Money.

Zerentopia is ranked 285,427th in the world and 6,262nd in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 4.06 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
