The Rogue Nation of Zombie 87 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Konrotex with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, absence of drug laws, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.38 billion Zombie 87ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Suvax. The average income tax rate is 88.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zombie 87ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,733 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, 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 271,699 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign converts are illuminated by both missionaries and helicopter searchlights, boats straying just metres away from the shore will raise the ire of the Coast Guard, counselors have to sign pledges supporting gay rights before they can speak to any patients, and extraordinary tribunals try accused financial criminals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zombie 87's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Brains.

Zombie 87 is ranked 6,684th in the world and 89th in NationStates for Lowest Crime Rates, with 109.61 law-abiding acts per hour.
