Federative Republic of Brazil
 * Government:
 * Jair Bolsonaro makes a public speech adressing the Zalgos, following the example of USA. In it, he states that all information about Zalgos are real, and the attempts of saying otherwise were staged to avoid panic. He also explained that the riots in Rio were not riots, but a Zalgo outbreak, now controlled and neutralized. Bolsonaro finished by saying that Brazil is doing everything it can to ensure the safety for its people, and that, together, brazilians will never let the Zalgos pose an existential threat to our country.
 * The reactions to the speech were mixed. Many people panicked, and Rio de Janeiro suffered a massive drop in tourism. For that, ICEZ made a card instructing people on how to spot Zalgos and assuring them that the Zalgos are under control and will not become an epidemy.
 * To prove the outbreak in Rio was controlled, the Army made a video tour in the favelas showing empty streets, and no signs of Zalgo. This made the people calmer even though nobody knows why or how the Zalgos disappeared, but nobody is telling that to the people, obviously.
 * Parties nominate their candidacts to the elections in 2030 Q4. Bolsonaro's approval sharply increased after the Zalgo speech because, according to electors, "he saved us from these hellish zombies". Christian parties also have an increase of popularity.
 * Military:
 * The slums affected by Zalgo are still closed and occupied. Lockdown is lifted, but the port and airport are still closed.
 * More battalions are moved north to patrol the Amazon and avoid Zalgos from crossing the borders.
 * Armed Forces still on high alert, even with the misterious disappearance of Zalgos from Rio de Janeiro.
 * The Navy with foreign investments resumes the building of the Aircraft Carrier, which was going slow for two years now. Expected to finish in early 2031.
 * Economy:
 * Rio de Janeiro suffers an economic crisis after the Zalgo outbreak. Around 200 thousand people left the city, and tourism reduced in 89%. State and federal funds are sent to aid it. The media is paid to show Rio as a completely safe place, and the slums as Zalgo-free.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Venezuela: This is a mistake, Brazil has no bases in venezuelan territory. They are probably guerrillas. You are welcomed in our research program.
 * Korea:: We don't want to spend so much money modernizing our tank fleet. We don't even want to modernize it in first place.
 * We're looking for a modern carrier-capable multirole fighter fleet to replace the current one.
 * Zalgo Combat and Research (ICEZ):
 * Everybody is confused on how or why the Zalgos disappeared in Rio de Janeiro. Heavily escorted researchers look for any way they must have left (land, underground, air, sea or somewhere they may be hiding). We tell the people it's because we won the fight.
 * Several instances vocalize out of nowhere. All the sounds are recorded, noted and studied. The most notable one was by Z-12, captured in Rio: "Help me. I don't know where I am. What have I done? Why? What the hell is this? Please save me. Please save them. Please save us.". Debates were sparked. Some scientists defend they're conscious and should be treated as humans. Others say he's actually warning us, not asking for pity. Others say they're alive but hallucinating. One doctor is arrested for trying to free the instance.
 * The vocalization issue leads to new study strategies:
 * Instances who speak must be under frequent brain activity scan.
 * Doctors must try to talk with Zalgo instances whenever it's possible and discover anything they can. Audio recordings mandatory.
 * Zalgos that talked cannot undergo inhumane treatment.
 * Afraid of new reanimations, captured Zalgos are separated in three categories, each in a different lab: Dead, Alive, and Killed after Reanimation.
 * Brain and skin tissues from confirmed dead Zalgos are still being analyzed, looking for pathogens. Some teams try to understand why blood samples are so contaminated. Budget increases to $1.3M per team.
 * Even if it's still Autumn, daylight time is comparable to Winter. Officers laugh when a relation with Zalgos is brought up, and the observation is sent to the Space Research National Institute.
