“No U”

The Awesomium of New Youland is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Supreme Overlord Hullo with an even hand, and renowned for its parental licensing program. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.538 billion are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Defence, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Social Welfare receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New New You. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining industries.

The nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics, manual labourers must be willing to have cybernetic limbs to get a job, the nation's new foreign policy of 'very disproportionate retribution' has its neighbors on edge, and the controversial show 'Who Wants to be an Immigrant?' has become wildly popular. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. New Youland's national animal is the knarf, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Awesomism, and its currency is the fol.

New Youland is ranked 2nd in the region and 53,846th in the world for Most Compassionate Citizens.
