The Rogue Nation of Zombie 58 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Qamoxx with an iron fist, and remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, enslaved workforce, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.51 billion Zombie 58ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bakux. The average income tax rate is 78.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Zombie 58ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,822 trillion baht 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 279,925 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

CEOs can't hear the term 'Fire Sale' without bursting into tears, homeowners are evicted to make way for new runways, airport users are more worried about radiation than terrorism, and soldiers who shoot themselves in the foot are regarded as heroes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zombie 58's national animal is the emu, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Brains.

Zombie 58 is ranked 282,626th in the world and 355th in NationStates for Safest, scoring 4.6 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
