The Republic of Zombie Belle is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Zombie Belle with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, public floggings, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 14.406 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Villeneuve. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.1%.

The powerhouse Zombie economy, worth a remarkable 1,036 trillion brains a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 71,931 brains, with the richest citizens earning 7.8 times as much as the poorest.

The natural world is burning as the government adds hot sauce, APCs on school runs disgorge kids via assault ramps, in coastal waters there are fifteen salvage divers per dead man's chest (yo ho ho), and the "boy who cried wolf" policy makes sick people reluctant to call an ambulance. Crime is a problem. Zombie Belle's national animal is the Zombie, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The cult of Zombie Belle.

Zombie Belle is ranked 71,047^th in the world and 2^nd in Zombieland for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 48,841.34 Standard Monetary Units.
