The United People of Nalt is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Rurik Ivanoff with an iron fist, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, compulsory military service, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 30.879 billion Naltians 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nalt City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.0%.

The very strong Naltian economy, worth a remarkable 2,821 trillion naltors a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Retail. Average income is 91,361 naltors, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 383,201 per year while the poor average 14,166, a ratio of 27.1 to 1.

The workforce is almost entirely made up of slave labour, theoretical science is only theoretical, the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists, and cremation is compulsory for the deceased. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Nalt's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is atheism.

Nalt is ranked 206,259^th in the world and 9,302^nd in Balder for Longest Average Lifespans, with 69.26 years.
