The Rogue Nation of Zombie 40 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Bailey Davis with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.572 billion Zombie 40ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pearl Bette. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 90.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Zombie 40ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,691 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 314,028 marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,167,140 per year while the poor average 59,368, a ratio of 19.7 to 1.
Death row inmates cower in fear at the phrase "one-year anniversary", people who get diabetes can sue donut manufacturers, the tax agency is feared more than serial killers and terrorists, and the request to "give us our daily bread" can only be fulfilled six days out of seven. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zombie 40's national animal is the elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Brains.
Zombie 40 is ranked 10,322nd in the world and 179th in NationStates for Lowest Crime Rates, with 100.45 law-abiding acts per hour.
