The Armed Republic of Nu-Normandy is a massive, safe nation, notable for its vat-grown people, enslaved workforce, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.18 billion Nu-Normandyians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 93.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Nu-Normandyian economy, worth 201 trillion Nukes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 170,738 Nukes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

A baby's first breath is also a baby's first felony, survivors receive aid from only the most environmentally-friendly transport, a lot of number one hits are straight cover versions, and it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nu-Normandy's national animal is the Nuke, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Nu-Normandy is ranked 300,461^st in the world and 26^th in The Great Monarchical Nations for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -7.75 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
