The Tomatoship of New Delfos is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by The Council of New Delfos with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful population of 35.771 billion Delfics enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Environment, and Social Policy are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Delfingrad. The average income tax rate is 62.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New Delfosian economy, worth a remarkable 5,763 trillion tomatoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 161,126 tomatoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are deeply regretting challenging the government to be honest about its intentions, clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions, the state considers itself the 'third parent' of every child in the nation, and an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. New Delfos's national animal is the Big Red Tomato, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Delfos is ranked 4,582nd in the world and 3rd in Taijitu for Nicest Citizens, with 49.76 average smiles per day.
