The Principality of New Liakem is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its state-planned economy and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 12.414 billion New Liakemians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Spirituality, although Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 44.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped New Liakemian economy, worth 384 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Trout Farming. Average income is 30,934 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Liakem's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Liakem is ranked 256,482nd in the world and 9,475th in Osiris for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -7.46 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
