“Un peuple, un but, une foi”

The Proud Diverse States of N3wgr0unds is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its national health service. Its compassionate, cynical population of 970 million are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flash Por Tal. The average income tax rate is 97%. A robust private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Tourism and Arms Manufacturing.

The importance of winning Olympic gold medals is indoctrinated from an early age, prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, the government is seen to favor Catholics, and the nation's massive battleships are often mistaken for islands. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. N3wgr0unds's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Score.

N3wgr0unds is ranked 13th in the region and 36,117th in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
