The United Island Republics of of The Zombay is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Tyros Newman with a fair hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic, cheerful population of 19.92 billion Zombayans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government is primarily concerned with Industry, with Education, Healthcare, and Defense also on the agenda, while International Aid and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Réma. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Zombayan economy, worth a remarkable 7,484 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 375,724 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Blue sky thinkers are reminded that the firmament is actually more of a grey-ish colour, it is a crime to offend someone's religious beliefs, TV coverage of music festivals consists mostly of backstage interviews, and even secular Zombayans are shouting "Blessed are the cheesemakers!". Crime is totally unknown. The Zombay's national animal is the Axolotl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Temple of the Sun.

The Zombay is ranked 286,112^th in the world and 6,985^th in the Rejected Realms for Most Primitive, scoring -468.24 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
