The United Island Republics of of The Zombay is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Tyros Newman with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, democratic, cheerful population of 21.074 billion Zombayans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government is primarily concerned with Industry, with Education, Healthcare, and Defense also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Réma. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Zombayan economy, worth a remarkable 7,775 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 368,966 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, the only movement outdoors is of ramen-delivery drones, and New Réma University is said to be the modern-day Tower of Babel. Crime is totally unknown. The Zombay's national animal is the Axolotl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Temple of the Sun.

The Zombay is ranked 241,136^th in the world and 10,592^nd in Lazarus for Most Authoritarian, with 407.89 milliStalins.
