The Confederacy of New Anea is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Delaney Sunderson with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, avant-garde cinema, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 7.983 billion New Aneans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anea City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.5%.

The very strong New Anean economy, worth 510 trillion franoes a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 63,891 franoes, with the richest citizens earning 6.4 times as much as the poorest.

The government has an "easy come, easy go" policy on youth crime, children who display even minimal sporting aptitude are immediately assigned a personal trainer, camera crews have accompanied conscripted dancers to film 'Marching On Ice', and police struggle to solve crimes due to the lack of fingerprint records. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. New Anea's national animal is the Caribou, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

New Anea is ranked 84,958^th in the world and 96^th in Coalition of Crown Albatross for Most Cultured, scoring 67 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
