The Kingdom of NewAlbion is a massive, safe nation, ruled by King Bill I with an iron fist, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, disturbing lack of elderly people, and fear of technology. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.916 billion NewAlbians 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 juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Torchminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 60.9%.

The sizeable but underdeveloped NewAlbionian economy, worth 85.5 trillion Pound Sterlings a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 44,647 Pound Sterlings, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 140,012 per year while the poor average 10,908, a ratio of 12.8 to 1.

The bayonet is cutting-edge technology, King Bill I has been self-declared as the Most Supreme Magnificent Overlord of Everything You Ever Saw, King Bill I is the self-declared God of all NewAlbion, and women who can do math in their head are burned for witchcraft. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. NewAlbion's national animal is the none, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

NewAlbion is ranked 194,678th in the world and 182nd in United Kingdom for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring zero on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
