The Republic of Nugestria is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, suspicion of poets, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 239 million Nugestrians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 48.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Nugestrian economy, worth 5.60 trillion Marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 23,433 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreigners with shady pasts are fleeing the country, pre-schoolers who draw stick figures of their favorite celebrities are sued for infringing image rights, saying the word 'eggplant' is now a criminal offense, and streaming video is considered to be a myth by most citizens. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nugestria's national animal is the Falcon.

Nugestria is ranked 123,702^nd in the world and 3,108^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,558.95 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
