The Rogue Nation of Zombie 72 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Ziba Pineraz with an even hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, frequent executions, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.377 billion Zombie 72ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zantiagox. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Zombie 72ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,206 trillion baht 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. 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 impressive 189,248 baht, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

Clergy who start talking about politics are forced to take a holy vow of silence, legislators work 24/7 due to an influx of single-issue bills, citizens may cast their vote over the internet or phone, and students who refuse to pray are expelled from school. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zombie 72's national animal is the wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Zombie 72 is ranked 37,476th in the world and 462nd in NationStates for Lowest Crime Rates, with 78.78 law-abiding acts per hour.
