The Dictatorship of The Zanaami Hierarchy is a massive, safe nation, ruled by First Speaker Yndana with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, ubiquitous missile silos, and frequent executions. The compassionate, cynical population of 3.787 billion Zanaami are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Virdion. The average income tax rate is 85.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zanaami economy, worth 452 trillion Vallians a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 119,616 Vallians, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's new Mylab space station is notorious for being the loneliest place above the planet, election debates consists mostly of two grey suits arguing over how to best preserve the status quo, artists are renowned for their ability to make art pieces out of thin air, and movie references are legally admissible in court. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Zanaami Hierarchy's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Zanaami Hierarchy is ranked 28,418th in the world and 658th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 227.88 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
