The Confederated Islands of Zanforadon is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Divine Sovereign Zan Xeranosis with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.098 billion Zanfaras 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 large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zankatorna. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Zanfa economy, worth a remarkable 1,223 trillion Draconics a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 239,910 Draconics, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Late night talk show hosts are having a field day over Divine Sovereign Zan Xeranosis's questionably sane new coalition partners, pizzerias must now display shrines to the Pizza God, youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights, and a traveller who once stubbed a toe on an Air Brancaland flight has been offered asylum. Crime is totally unknown. Zanforadon's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Xoh'hoto.

Zanforadon is ranked 1,892nd in the world and 48th in the South Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 71.44 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
