The Alignment of Novacom is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Suprainister Denteth Tolion with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, anti-smoking policies, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 35.099 billion Novans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novesia. The average income tax rate is 80.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Novan economy, worth a remarkable 5,473 trillion Novons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 155,941 Novons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The police double as repo men, neon signs promoting safe driving often distract drivers, Novacom's heavy congestion charges are the bane of motorists' lives, and the nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Novacom's national animal is the Phoenix and its national religion is Atheism.

Novacom is ranked 1,771^st in the world and 21^st in Gholgoth for Highest Economic Output, with 5,473 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
