The Apocalypse Wasteland Mayor of Zombie is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Mr Zombie with an even hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 30.139 billion Zombieans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Public Transport, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zombie Land. The average income tax rate is 59.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Zombiean economy, worth 724 trillion Human Fleshes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Beef-Based Agriculture, Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 24,041 Human Fleshes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Religious classes are compulsory for all school students, swamplands and bogs have been put under quarantine, scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied Zombie Dog, and suit-clad businessmen have been taking advantage of the relaxed welfare qualifications by shopping with food stamps. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Zombie's national animal is the Zombie Dog, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Zombie is ranked 57,732nd in the world and 3rd in Zombieland for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,751.07 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
