The Kingdom of Newheaven is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Brandon Holden with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, avant-garde cinema, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.83 billion Skywardens 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 government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Skyhaven. The average income tax rate is 84.1%.

The frighteningly efficient a Skywarden economy, worth 386 trillion Golden Stars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 211,219 Golden Stars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

The government struggles to keep up with the endless list of petrol disasters, homeless people are periodically found dead upon altars to assorted deities, pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil, and the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Newheaven's national animal is the Golden Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Northism.

Newheaven is ranked 19,529th in the world and 14th in KAISERREICH for Largest Black Market, with 193 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
