Gibraltar is a peninsula.
Spanish and British Forces guard Gibraltar Defense Perimeter during the WWZ, despite political tensions between UK and Spain about the small island, Gibraltar defense were reinforced by some spanish army and Navy units during the War.
Photos and map of Manihi Atoll in French Polynesia. The atoll was converted to a refugee center for countless boat people where they mainly lived off on pearls, oysters, fishing, and coconuts. The iconic lagoon was filled with boats of different kinds. During the Great Panic, the rogue PLA-N nuclear attack submarine Admiral Zheng He sought refuge in Manihi before it was hunted by a loyalist PLA-N Type 95 submarine, forcing the Zheng He to flee the refuge atoll.
A photo of the city of Armagh, Ireland with the famous St. Patrick's Cathedral looming over the other buildings, taken sometime after the war.
Armagh, like the rest of the island of Éire became a safe haven for possibly tens of thousands of other Europeans, mainly British, during the rest of the war. Notable wartime refugees including members of the British Royal Family and the Pope himself, who fled Vatican to Armagh where he takes his wartime residence in St. Patrick's Cathedral.
The island of Éire was reunified at one point after the end of the war.

The Royal Moroccan Army were patrolling the streets of Casablanca, Morocco's largest city after numerous cases of 'African Rabies' were reported in neighbouring Algeria and Spain. Like much of Morocco's coastal areas, Casablanca was later abandoned to the infecteds for a more defensible perimeter at the Atlas Mountains.
Londoners watched in shock as reports of 'incidents of significant scale' from Khayelitsha township in South Africa pouring in. At the early years of the spread of the virus, people around the world mistakenly thought the growing infestation as a bizarre strain of African Rabies, based on general belief that the plague started in Cape Town.
A small group of civilians tried to flee their destroyed neighbourhood in the southern city of Bexhill-on-Sea, England. When the Great Panic set in, runaway fires, traffic accidents, and general chaos killed more people and caused more destruction than the infecteds themselves.

Before, During, and After
From left to right:
1.) JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA: South African police engaging "rioters" (later determined to be zombies) in Johannesburg during the initial stages of the Great Panic. Though initially believed to have originated in the RSA (hence the prewar term "African Rabies"), subsequent studies conducted by the UN Postwar Commission have come to suggest that the zombie plague likely originated in the former PRC.
2.) ENGLAND, UNITED KINGDOM: UK military convoy passes by a derelict civilian vehicle during the reclamation of Great Britain.
3.) WEST AFRICA: UN Postwar Commission research convoy in West Africa passes by an armed "neighborhood watch" member after conducting interviews in a nearby town, several years after VA Day.
==================================================================
Aftermath
From left to right:
1.) SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA: Artist's depiction of postwar reconstruction efforts in Seoul, South Korea.
2.) ENGLAND, UNITED KINGDOM: Deserted postwar highway in the UK countryside. Car ownership rates have declined in many parts of the world in large part due to the destruction of parts manufacturers and devastation of petroleum production brought about by the war. Cars like the BMW Z4 "are not made anymore."
3.) BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA: Soldiers of the Bosnian Army (OSBiH) conduct a zombie control patrol at a village in Herzegovina postwar. Even several years after VA Day, remnant zombie stragglers still remain a problem in many parts of the world, with various containment efforts made by UN member states.

A modified M3 Grease Gun with Picatiny rail, M68 aim point, and suppressor in AFP service. World War Z forced the Philippine government to reopen its vast stocks of WWII and Cold War-era weapons to arms soldiers, police, and civilian volunteers in the fight against the zombies. The M1 Garand, M1 Carbine, and the M3 Grease Guns saw service once more.
