The Socialist Empire of The EOZ is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Zaktan with a fair hand, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 22.618 billion Skakdis 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zakaz. The average income tax rate is 99.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Skakdi economy, worth a remarkable 4,342 trillion Delfaks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 191,979 Delfaks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government only invests in infrastructure after a natural disaster, tax-payers are funding ever more extravagant movie projects, giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, and an online tea-bagging epidemic is getting worse and (meta)worse. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The EOZ's national animal is the Piraka, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The EOZ is ranked 2,320^th in the world and 3^rd in 8th International for Highest Food Quality, scoring 267.71 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
