The Gaming Den

The Principality of Zebonia is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its digital currency, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 510 million Zebonians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 61.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Zebonian economy, worth 53.7 trillion Battles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 105,360 Battles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

No one born in Zebonia can fix a leaky faucet, billions of Battles are being blown on orbital weapons development, retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, and convicts released after being found "wrongfully imprisoned" are surprisingly chill about the whole thing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Zebonia's national animal is the Ogre, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zebonia is ranked 60,086th in the world and 1,575th in the West Pacific for Most Influential, scoring 174 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
