The Socialist DemocraticRepublic of Noiska is a colossal, genial nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 8.053 billion Noiskans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Felna. The average income tax rate is 70.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Noiskan economy, worth 55.7 trillion Markas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports and Book Publishing. Average income is 6,911 Markas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, and Noiska has designated Felna as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Noiska's national animal is the Noiskan Wolf and Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Noiska is ranked 140,981st in the world and 11th in The Free Nations Region for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,730.75 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
