The Alcoholic Vampirism of Zombie 21 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Manhattan Skinner with an iron fist, and renowned for its daily referendums, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.85 billion Zombie 21ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carla Text Door. The average income tax rate is 61.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Zombie 21ian economy, worth a remarkable 3,129 trillion francs a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 288,431 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Black tea is only available on the black market, public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers, only lightning has a chance of striking Manhattan Skinner twice, and all government communication requires the imprimatur of the Truth Police. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zombie 21's national animal is the dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Belligerence.

Zombie 21 is ranked 285,828^th in the world and 766^th in NationStates for Most Primitive, scoring -449.86 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
