The Musacha Tapes is a collection of prank calls made by prank call artists known as "Big Ant" and "Lionel", as their real names are never credited. The calls are in the style similar to The Jerky Boys, but a little more brash. The Jerky Boys are in the "Thank you" section of the liner notes from the album, although no direct affiliation of the Jerky Boys is known.

The characters portrayed by Big Ant are similar to the ones portrayed by Johnny B of the Jerky Boys. John Musacha and the surname "Musacha" appear regularly on the album as character names such as "Giovanni Musacha", who is an 'adverse advertiser' or John Musacha, a character similar to Frank Rizzo from the Jerky Boys. Lionel's characters are based on racial stereotypes of African-Americans and Italians, often unintelligible to the caller.

Zekistan is a fictional Central Asian or Middle Eastern nation in the video games Full Spectrum Warrior and Full Spectrum Warrior: Ten Hammers.

Geography
Zekistan is a small country located in Southern Asia. It borders Tajikstan to the north, China to the east, Pakistan to the west and Afghanistan to the north-west. It is split into four provinces; a large southern province, a central province, a relatively large northern province and the north-western province of Tien Hamir. The central province contains the capital city, Zafarra. The Tien Hamir mountain range divides the north of the country from the south and the Khamar River runs through it, creating the Chergza Pass, which acts as the traffic-way that links the north and south of the country. The north-west is more mountainous than the rest of the country, but has more fertile land than the central and southern regions which are mostly comprised of barren desert and the north-west also contains the country's oil fields. Zekistan also has rich deposits of natural gas, coal, gold, zinc and silver. Has a population of 9,000,000

History
In its early history, Zekistan was conquered by the Mongols, the Ottoman Turks and the British Empire. In the 1800s, Zekistan was released from British control and there was a century of relative stability and peace. But in the early 20th century, Zekistan was invaded by Bolshevik forces. Ethnic Zeki fighters hiding in the mountains held back the invaders for 14 years, but Zekistan was eventually occupied and became one of the Republics of the new Soviet Union.

The Soviet Era

Under Soviet rule, thousands of ethnic Zekis were killed, while villages and cultural sites and artifacts were destroyed. Funding for infrastructure, healthcare and education was kept low in order to subjugate the Zeki people and prevent further rebellion, while Zekistan's raw material wealth was plundered for the Soviet Union. In the late 1960s, the militant Zeki Liberation Front was formed to fight for Zeki independence from the USSR. For two decades, ZLF fighters fought a tit-for-tat guerilla war against the Soviet Army. In the early 1980s, the CIA began supporting Mujahideen forces resisting the Soviet invasion of neighbouring Afghanistan and also began funding and training the ZLF, in an attempt to drive the Soviets out of both nations. Throughout the 1980s, there was an influx of Arab fighters into Zekistan, who supported the ZLF against the Soviet Army.

Civil War

On October 4th 1991, Zekistan declared independence from the disintegrating Soviet Union, becoming a sovereign state. But foreign powers and over a dozen factions soon began maneuvering to take control of Zekistan, inflaming ethnic tensions and plunging the country into a brutal civil war. After a decade of brutal fighting, the militant Arab Islamic Extremist faction led by Mohammed Jabour Al-Afad was eventually victorious, seizing control of country and quickly establishing an extreme-right Islamic Fundamentalist regime. Al-Afad’s regime soon began to ethnically cleanse the ethnic Zeki population, as a punishment for opposing his rule. After the US-led invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, the Al-Afad regime offered asylum to members of the Taliban, Al-Qaeda, and the Hussein regime. Terrorist training camps were quickly set up in Zekistan.

NATO Invasion

A string of terrorist attacks around the world are traced back to the terrorist camps based in Zekistan. UN diplomatic efforts with Zekistan soon failed, prompting NATO to take action. In 2004, a NATO coalition, led by the United States, was formed to invade Zekistan. US forces were supported by British, Canadian, Czech, Spanish, Polish and Australian* forces. The coalition had three stated aims in Zekistan.

*Remove Mohammad Jabour Al-Afad as dictator of Zekistan.
*Eliminate the terrorist support network in Zekistan.
*Stop the ethnic cleansing of ethnic Zekis under Al Afad’s rule.

Pakistan granted access to its airspace for coalition aircraft based on US aircraft carriers in the Arabian Sea. Within 72 hours, air strikes have destroyed much of the Al-Afad regime's armour, air-defenses, missiles and bases. Infantry and armour began landing at captured bases in the southern Zekistan. US forces, backed by British SAS troopers and friendly ethnic Zeki fighters, soon moved into the capital city, Zafarra, in the centre of the country. There, a vicious urban gun battle ensued between Al-Afad's troops and US Soldiers from the 1-159th Infantry, Bravo company. 38 US troops were killed. Within one day, much of the capital was taken and Al-Afad was killed in a US helicopter gunship strike.

Insurgency

Six months after the fall of the regime, the coalition had established an interim government to transition Zekistan into democracy, but severe problems were also emerging. Various insurgencies began to plague the country and ethnic divisions were again causing sectarian conflict. Across the country, the Mujahideen Al-Zeki, an Al-Afad loyalist group led by Mullah Abdul Hassan began to fight coalition troops in an attempt to re-establish the old regime. Another key faction was the Anser Al-Ra’id, a Tien Hamir-ethnic Zeki faction led by Mullah Qari Ra’id, seeking Tien Hamir Zeki independence under his rule. The previously peaceful province of Tien Hamir and it’s regional capital city, Khardiman, became a focus of the fighting in the country when Mujahideen forces staged an uprising, bringing them into conflict with American forces, British UN Coalition forces, National Militia forces under the control of regional governor Andrei Zakirov and Anser Al-Ra’id forces. To make matters worse, Anser Al-Ra’id forces soon turned on American, Coalition and National Militia forces. But British forces were able to re-take the Tein Hamir Bridge from insurgent control and US forces were able to re-take most of the city, halting a possible civil war between the Mujahideen, Al-Ra’id forces and government.

Demographics
Zekistan is ethnically diverse, due to Zekistan being at a cultural crossroad in Asia. The indigenous ethnic Zeki population is Islamic and Persian-speaking, but there are also groups of Pakistani and Afghani settlers. The events in Zekistan in the last twenty-five years also brought an influx of ethnic Arabs and there is also an ethnic Russian population, who settled in Zekistan during the Soviet era. Zekistan has always been at a cultural crossroad, so its culture has Persian, Arab, Indian, Chinese and European influences.
