The Universal Republic of New Stonkopolis is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by John Aldrich Rockefeller with an iron fist, and remarkable for its smutty television, parental licensing program, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.145 billion Terrans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Terra Prima. The average income tax rate is 33.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Terrans economy, worth 319 trillion Terran Civilis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 148,824 Terran Civilis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Posh restaurants scatter glass fragments on the dining room floor to keep out barefoot undesirables, soldiers' positions are given away by the glint of their bayonets, the law says it's okay to sell a bomb to a terrorist so long as they promise not to detonate it, and paralegals spend all day Hewlett-Packing attorneys' law briefs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Stonkopolis's national animal is the Bald Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Corporatism.

New Stonkopolis is ranked 15,924^th in the world and 3^rd in Archai for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 8,918.12 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
