The Free Land of Sam Neill is a fledgling, safe nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 5 million Kiwis are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 43.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The developing Sam Neillian economy, worth 141 billion Kakapos a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 28,258 Kakapos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sam Neill's national animal is the Triceratops.

Sam Neill is ranked 286,546^th in the world and 549^th in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -9.3 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
