The Republic of NCH Sotenko is a large, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning Kitsune population. The hard-working population of 199 million NCH Sotenkoans 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 Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 18.4%.

The NCH Sotenkoan economy, worth 8.79 trillion Yen a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 44,160 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. NCH Sotenko's national animal is the Kitsune, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

NCH Sotenko is ranked 284,003^rd in the world and 5^th in Nichirin for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -6.38 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
