The Xogheknate of Neuewland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Schmidt Johnson with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 15.019 billion Nyals are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nyalizhag. The average income tax rate is 76.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nyal economy, worth a remarkable 6,366 trillion Tyrsus a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 423,868 Tyrsus, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has declared that sharing is uncaring, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, jaywalking will put an end to a family tree, and creating dance remixes is the newest form of conspicuous consumption. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neuewland's national animal is the Sivuk Marmot, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Sjaanism.

Neuewland is ranked 4,559th in the world and 10th in Anteria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 118.59 law-abiding acts per hour.
