The Republic of Zera Israel is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by David Hermon with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 850 million Israelis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jerusalem. The average income tax rate is 57.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Israeli economy, worth 111 trillion New Israeli Shekels a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 131,426 New Israeli Shekels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Generals have trouble barking orders over the sound of thundering artillery, internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, and referenda are held for every conceivable government action. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zera Israel's national animal is the Gazelle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zera Israel is ranked 29,980^th in the world and 1,065^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 82.88 law-abiding acts per hour.
