The Principality of Nioya is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Prince Jaden with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, rampant corporate plagiarism, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 26.675 billion Nioyans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Musica. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Nioyan economy, worth a remarkable 4,595 trillion Denaris a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 172,268 Denaris, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nudity is frowned upon, ambitious "businessmen" use their children to sell and advertise their products, single celebrities have to repeatedly prove their chastity to avoid being married off to infatuated fans, and frequent flyers are chiseled into statues. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nioya's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Episcopal Church of Nioya.

Nioya is ranked 73,937^th in the world and 10^th in The Embassy for Highest Drug Use, scoring 227.58 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
