The Free City of Nova Universo is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mayor Wihann Cronier with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.395 billion Nova Universistoj enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 72.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Nova Universisto economy, worth 453 trillion valutoes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 103,105 valutoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, the easiest method of escaping from prison is to take singing lessons, and political scientists despair as the national mascot election eclipses all others in voter enthusiasm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Nova Universo's national animal is the flying otter, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Nova Universo is ranked 33,858th in the world and 6th in Union of Nova Universo for Lowest Crime Rates, with 80.38 law-abiding acts per hour.
