The Republic of Zachoria is a very large, efficient nation, renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 299 million Zachorians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Spirituality, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.9%.

The very strong Zachorian economy, worth 20.7 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is 69,150 Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 227,610 per year while the poor average 15,739, a ratio of 14.5 to 1.

Surveillance cameras are banned, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, many friends and relatives of Leader have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations, and the demands of climate protestors are measured in spray-paint can sales. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Zachoria's national animal is the dragon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Zachoria is ranked 152,111^th in the world and 6^th in Nomenstatia for Smartest Citizens, with 29.64 quips per hour.
