1. Zombies Throughout History
Meghan Ballinger

2. From The
Beginning
• It is a very little known fact that
zombies have been around since the
very moment America was founded
by settlers. What they don't tell you
in the history books, is that zombies
were actually the first to set foot
in the new world.
• They were the founders of this great
nation, but, unfortunately, receive
none of the credit, due to how
terrifying they are.
• The zombies originated from across
the Pacific when a disease was
spread across Europe and Africa, and
slowly made its way both east and
west.

3. Founding Fathers
• While many think that the founding fathers
were these perfect old men with best of
intentions for our great nation, they were
severely mistaken.
• They were undead and very much liked to eat
the humans they came in contact with.
• However, they tried to keep some humans
alive, so as not to entirely wipe out the race
completely.

4. It Wasn't Just the Humans...
• It was just the humans that were affected by
the virus, but the animals as well.
• Even the kitties.
• The virus affected everything.

5. Wars
• Wars were fought between the
humans the zombies.
• The humans wanted to be free of
the zombies hold on then and the
zombies just wanted the humans
to be more obedient.
• The humans were victorious and
shunned the zombies to live in
small communities away from
humans.

6. Advances in Diets
• Over the years, zombies no longer had to
count on fresh brains and guys from humans to
survive. Instead, zombie scientists developed
synthetic foods for zombies to live on. Though
that did stop most of them from eating
people.

7. Misunderstood
• The zombies who had been using the
synthetic foods felt severely misunderstood.
• They weren't bad, they just weren't that
pretty, so people got the wrong impression of
them.

8. Activism
• While there were still a few bad seeds who
refused to eat the new synthetic food, the
one who did wanted nothing more for
humans and zombies to be treated exactly the
same.
• So they started groups and organized protests.
Eventually, the humans began to accept the
good zombies, knowing that not all of them fit
into the same archetype.

9. Activism Results
• The activists got zombies to be wildly accepted. There
were multiple zombies that came to be wildly popular.

10. Today's Zombies
• Todays zombies are pretty peaceful, save for the occasional
bad seed. The live in harmony with the humans and all is
well.

11. Future
Zombies
• The zombies are definitely
planning on overthrowing the
human government, because,
they're zombies and are definitely
getting tired of synthetic brains.
• Maybe it'll work, maybe it won't. I
guess we'll all see what happens.
