The Free Land of For Newland is a small, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning cat population. The hard-working population of 36 million For Newlandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 19.6%.
The For Newlandian economy, worth 1.67 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Automobile Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is 46,362 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
It is illegal to make racist remarks in public, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, and hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. For Newland's national animal is the cat.
For Newland is ranked 148,703rd in the world and 322nd in Refugia for Most Income Equality, scoring 27.72 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
