The Rogue Nation of Estada Nova is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.692 billion Estada Novans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.3%.

The very strong Estada Novan economy, worth 119 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 70,858 Euros, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 234,964 per year while the poor average 15,951, a ratio of 14.7 to 1.

Preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime, genetic researchers have been expelled, elections are outlawed and a hairstylist has recently received a government appointment, and police spend their Saturday nights breaking up illegal street races. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Estada Nova's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Estada Nova is ranked 175,910th in the world and 29th in The Card Void for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 430.66 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
