The Republic of N GE is a massive, safe nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed population of 2.271 billion N GEians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 36.3%.

The N GEian economy, worth 120 trillion florins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Cheese Exports, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,917 florins, with the richest citizens earning 8.1 times as much as the poorest.

Park rangers perform full-body searches on suspected fungus smugglers, power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky, NG-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age, and escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. N GE's national animal is the penguin.

N GE is ranked 115,015^th in the world and 139^th in Communitas for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 715.78 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
