The Proconsulate of Novo Senatus et Populusque Romanus is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Gaius Albus Aquilinus Novilianus with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 8.124 billion Romans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, outspoken government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Roma Nova. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Roman economy, worth a remarkable 1,370 trillion denarios a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 168,689 denarios, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", male cubicle workers stand up every time a woman enters the room, and construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground. Crime is totally unknown. Novo Senatus et Populusque Romanus's national animal is the Imperial Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Numanism.

Novo Senatus et Populusque Romanus is ranked 168,117^th in the world and 162^nd in 21st Century Rome for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.34 Kickbacks Per Hour.
