The Republic of Zombie Aurora is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Zombie Aurora with an iron fist, and renowned for its flagrant waste-dumping, pith helmet sales, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 14.551 billion Zombies are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Antremstre. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Zombie economy, worth a remarkable 1,582 trillion zombucks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 108,758 zombucks, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 435,686 per year while the poor average 18,216, a ratio of 23.9 to 1.

Collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise, compassion shrinks as tax rebates grow, the dictionary is a common first book for children, and citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Zombie Aurora. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Zombie Aurora's national animal is the Zombie, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is a zombie cult.

Zombie Aurora is ranked 133,907th in the world and 1st in Fae for Most Developed, scoring 57.06 on the Human Development Index.
