The CURE of Zombie 4 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by z4 with an iron fist, and notable for its ritual sacrifices, state-planned economy, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 16.082 billion Zombie 4ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The tiny, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Snowfall. The average income tax rate is 4.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zombie 4ian economy, worth a remarkable 3,446 trillion deniers 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 large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip 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 an amazing 214,292 deniers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Weird or unusual crimes merit cruel and unusual punishments, saying 'no homo' is enough to escape punishment for the crime of being gay, the working classes live and die on the fields of the farming communes, and the nation's soldiers often believe they're in the Air Force. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zombie 4's national animal is the kiwi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is doovoo.

Zombie 4 is ranked 20,137th in the world and 222nd in NationStates for Most Stationary, with 1,614.2435154946 days.
