Zero is a medium-sized region, with a thriving community of 17 nations. The region has technology 400 years ahead of Earth.
The straight-backed, broad-smiling populace of Zero eagerly dismissed concerns of oppression. Nations in the region are healthy democracies, with denizens being afforded an extensive array of political freedoms. Economies in the region tend to be stronger than average. Denizens suffer under an enormous tax burden throughout the region, with a median tax rate of 52%, and much higher for the wealthy. The economies of nations in the region tend to be weighted more towards the public sector, with on average only 45% of the economy comprising the private sector. Commerce is a priority for governments, accounting for an average of 6% of public expenditure.
Zero values education extremely highly, and denizens compete for the largest number of university degrees and sprawling book collections. The region's law enforcement officials have combated crime, so that it becomes almost non-existant. Denizens on average have small defense forces. Public transport is a popular mode of transport in the region, receiving on average of 6% of total government budgets.
Throughout Zero, governments find themselves confused, with administration departments being so bloated that staff do not know what other staff are doing, with an average of over 11% of government budgets being devoted to Administration. Governments generally endow their healthcare departments with a large amount of funding, with an average of 6% of government budgets across the region being devoted to healthcare. Welfare is a large part of government expenditure, with denizens amply provided for. Spirituality is a major priority of governments in the region, with a relatively high average of 2% of government budgets being devoted to Spirituality.
