Just be glad that they're not also married to other men and have ambition to kill themselves at the same time.

Shouldn't this go in the "Strange Screenshot" thread?
 
Well, politicians have always been mindless zombies. For a modern example, I think Strom Thurmond was really dead for about the last 30 years of his senatorial tenure. One day, the witch doctor got mad at him and turned off his JuJu magic. Thus, Strom fell over dead at 100.

The highly realistic political model in the VV game provides quality. As I expected, this marvel of programing simulates the political zombies of the past. This is why I pay the big bucks for Paradox games.:)
 
Besides the obvious comedy value--this looks like a bug to me. Allow me to move it to the bug reporting forum. Any other detail you can provide would be helpful.
 
Almost 100 years later and I still have an undead senate. The faction leaders died one by one and never got replaced. The grant title, assassinate, smear reputation, and bribe buttons are lit up, but only grant title actually works when you click on it. I gave one of my undead faction leaders a pontifex title, and poof I can never get it back. Apparently zombies can't be assassinated (makes sense they're already dead), they don't care what other people think (they eat brains), and they don't care about money (zombies are not capitalists). However, titles are very important to them...

The main event that occured was a Civil War in which I lost and the Roman rebels took over (with the help of Carthage attacking at the same time). I can confirm from their histories that 4 out of the 5 leaders were part of the rebellion. The other undead one seems to have been a "loyal roman".

Also, I changed governments from the default to Republican Confederacy. It was around the time of the rebellion, I believe after. Is there a way to check the specfic date, like a log?

That's about the jist of it, if you need to look up any information or have any other questions I could recall I'd be happy to help.
 
Here is a savegame with a single zombie researcher in Gaul. I cant provide additional information, I just found him when I tried to find out why my research is not making Progress.
