The Eternal Empire of New Babylonia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Emperor Xavier with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.44 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Defence, although Law & Order and Commerce are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Babylon. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Tourism industry, followed by Arms Manufacturing and Gambling.

Nude art is becoming wildly popular, the nation's massive battleships are often mistaken for islands, euthanasia is legal, and abortion is only legal in unusual circumstances. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Babylonia's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Christianity, and its currency is the Dhrar.

New Babylonia is ranked 20th in The ACSN and 126,143rd in the world for Stupidest Citizens, scoring -8 on the Average Edu-UNtellignce® Test Score.
