The State Syndicate of Nedea is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Drake Fairtrade with an iron fist, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, prohibition of alcohol, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 35.415 billion Nedeans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, corrupt, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of DarkHaven. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Nedean economy, worth an astonishing 14,750 trillion Kredits a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 416,500 Kredits, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,688,718 per year while the poor average 68,380, a ratio of 24.7 to 1.

Genetic research is facing major headwinds, rare steaks seem even bluer now, journalists listen to the money talk, and DarkHaven University is said to be the modern-day Tower of Babel. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Nedea's national animal is the Pony, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Nedea is ranked 331,854^th in the world and 25^th in New Coalition of Nations for Highest Average Tax Rates, with -8.82 Effective Tax Rate.
