The Greater Republic of New Antarcticania is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, suspicion of poets, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 7.368 billion New Antarcticans 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Slavidad. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New Antarctican economy, worth a remarkable 1,177 trillion Antarctican Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 159,875 Antarctican Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Books are so highly regarded in New Antarcticania that libraries are often revered as holy shrines, dynamite sales and concert audiences are booming, children seem to be getting better at lying these days, and the nation's faithful often say there is a higher power watching over them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Antarcticania's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Parliamentarian nationalism.

New Antarcticania is ranked 5,421st in the world and 302nd in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 114.21 law-abiding acts per hour.
