The Republic of TheNCR is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, suspicion of poets, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.562 billion TheNCRians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Healthcare, and Welfare also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 72.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving TheNCRian economy, worth 115 trillion Caps a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Uranium Mining, Retail, Soda Sales, and Pizza Delivery. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 74,198 Caps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dining out often involves Yaoguais on the plate no matter what you order, workers of "fairweather faith" claim six months of paid leave for holy days per year, lobster tastes best when it is red, and the nation's soldiers sleep four to a bed in order to use space economically. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TheNCR's national animal is the Yaoguai, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

TheNCR is ranked 265,782^nd in the world and 9,847^th in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 7.01 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
