The Community of Slime Zone is a massive, genial nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.588 billion Slime Zoneans 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, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jellyburg. The average income tax rate is 71.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Slime Zonean economy, worth 81.9 trillion blobs 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 major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 51,576 blobs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Jellyburg Times is sold out, tourists on boat cruises can't figure out why they smell so fishy afterward, most of the nation's wealthy aristocrats are dentists, and doctors who mutter "Oh my God" often lose their medical license. Crime is totally unknown. Slime Zone's national animal is the jellyfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Slime Zone is ranked 14,847th in the world and 173rd in The Leftist Assembly for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,423.41 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
