The Kingdom of Zombie Kartenhoff is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Aperape Clownkiller with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, parental licensing program, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.369 billion Zombie Kartenhoffians 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 prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of King's Landing. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 92.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Zombie Kartenhoffian economy, worth a remarkable 2,039 trillion irradiated dollars 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, 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 320,188 irradiated dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations, 90% of active duty ZKAF personnel have been laid off and replaced by robot kill-drones, when flight control tells pilots to alter course the usual reply is "No, YOU move!", and there are six more weeks of winter if a northerner sees her shadow. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zombie Kartenhoff's national animal is the three-headed zombie dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Pastafarianism.

Zombie Kartenhoff is ranked 2,165th in the world and 12th in Psychotic Dictatorships for Most Patriotic, with 105.15 flags saluted per person per day.
