The East Waszeraj Capital City of Zedakd is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Zényo Kíszúvy with a fair hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.908 billion Zedakkervekel 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, corrupt, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Osu Municipality Mar Tal District. The average income tax rate is 81.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zedakdervek economy, worth 661 trillion Zedakd Tegiks 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 dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 111,987 Zedakd Tegiks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, children talking about the food chain are routinely arrested, Zényo Kíszúvy's office has a newly installed Max-Man arcade game programmed by a 5th-grader, and doctors are learning that red tape makes ineffective bandages. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zedakd's national animal is the Tuszuvudszkha Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zedakd is ranked 228,497th in the world and 10th in Furballland for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -3.54 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
