The Monarchical Union of Novarians is a gargantuan, cultured nation, remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 19.348 billion Novarians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The tiny government is primarily concerned with Education, with Industry, Healthcare, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Citadel. The average income tax rate is 5.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Novarian economy, worth a remarkable 3,500 trillion Novas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 180,944 Novas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government response to disaster victims starving for bread is "let them eat stale cake", feuilletons can only be deciphered with a Galliennais dictionary, fifty years of pension funds can disappear in half a second, and attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams. Crime is totally unknown. Novarians's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Novarians is ranked 4,972nd in the world and 1st in The New Commonwealth Society for Most Stationary, with 3,241.70625864 days.
