The State of Zymurgysecundus is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and renowned for its absence of drug laws, suspicion of poets, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 37.386 billion Zymurgysecundusians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.8%.

The strong Zymurgysecundusian economy, worth a remarkable 1,346 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 36,021 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 244,905 per year while the poor average 1,935, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, the government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups, Zymurgysecundus has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Zymurgysecundus in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Zymurgysecundus's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Zymurgysecundus is ranked 289,971^st in the world and 487^th in State for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,640 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
