The Glorious Most High Empire of Zaxarium is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by God-Emperor Zaxares with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 38.651 billion Zaxarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pax Zaxarium. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Zaxariumian economy, worth an astonishing 11,932 trillion taels a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 308,713 taels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every day has been a surprise since weather reporters turned to consulting ancient totems for their seven-day forecasts, it is technically inaccurate to call the dead 'worm food', popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs, and undergrads find their professors' mushroom experiments less psychedelic than expected. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zaxarium's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Obedience to the God-Emperor.

Zaxarium is ranked 29,118th in the world and 41st in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Most Stationary, with 1,376.80931328592 days.
