The Allied States of New Avian is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 617 million New Avianians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tryvion. The average income tax rate is 63.1%.

The powerhouse New Avianian economy, worth 54.1 trillion puhskintis a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 87,665 puhskintis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Travel bureaus double as recruiting centers for national intelligence agencies, industry tycoons rarely hide their misdeeds due to the government's habit of bailing them out, the NABI Channel Tunnel project is plagued by delays, and no one knows how to tie a reef knot. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Avian's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

New Avian is ranked 157,860^th in the world and 8,178^th in The North Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -8.12 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
