The Blue Zombie of Ben Mankiewicz is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Wuff with an even hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, keen interest in outer space, and smutty television. The hard-nosed population of 11.65 billion Ben Mankiewiczians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yodle City. The average income tax rate is 55.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ben Mankiewiczian economy, worth a remarkable 1,371 trillion Gold Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 117,706 Gold Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians, most pop videos prominently feature the Ben Mankiewiczian flag, Ben Mankiewiczians suffer not the eggplant emoji to live, and droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ben Mankiewicz's national animal is the Zombie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Yodlism.

Ben Mankiewicz is ranked 77,006^th in the world and 10^th in Disney World for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,073.52 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
