The Zombie of New Lakemba is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Committee with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 15.676 billion New Lakembans 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 large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Canberra. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient New Lakemban economy, worth a remarkable 4,841 trillion New Lakembian Standard Kebabs a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 308,857 New Lakembian Standard Kebabs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians are often found scavenging bins at night to supplement their income, Eau de Trashcan has become a wildly popular perfume, solving crossword puzzles requires fluency in at least five languages, and the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The New Canberra Times is sold out. Crime is totally unknown. New Lakemba's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Lakemba is ranked 258^th in the world and 19^th in The North Pacific for Healthiest Citizens, with 50.53 bananas ingested per day.
