The Republic of Free Newdepolderian States is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Matriarch Alma de Visser with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 8.98 billion Newdepolderians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New de Polder. The average income tax rate is 96.2%.

The very strong Newdepolderian economy, worth a remarkable 1,009 trillion Inkepings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 112,397 Inkepings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, weekly religious services often resemble campaign rallies, environmentalists are advocating slash-and-burn in the nation's forests, and all the playground's a stage for Newdepolderian schoolchildren. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Free Newdepolderian States's national animal is the Elm Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is the National Evangelical Catholic Church.

Free Newdepolderian States is ranked 234,171st in the world and 92nd in The Social Liberal Union for Most Stationary, with 23.0834574488 days.
