The Empire of Zuuri is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Taari Tagayama with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, unlimited-speed roads, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 13.823 billion Zuurians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sokar. The average income tax rate is 76.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Zuurian economy, worth a remarkable 1,346 trillion Rins a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 97,420 Rins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Three extra hay bales are rolled into Zuuri's gold vaults every year, schoolchildren have more trading cards than flash cards in their backpacks, search-and-rescue organisations are the biggest employer in the country, and ride-sharing often involves some passengers sitting on the roof rack. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zuuri's national animal is the Cardinal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zuuri is ranked 7,324^th in the world and 9^th in The Free Nations Region for Nicest Citizens, with 37.47 average smiles per day.
