The Community of Ned Collectors is a huge, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 795 million Ned Collectors are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 58.8%.

The strong Ned Collecting economy, worth 40.5 trillion ned coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 50,914 ned coins, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Out-of-work basketball players loom over the unemployment line, the nation excels at displacement, the country has unplugged its internet connection to prevent subversive content, and squeaky high prepubescent voices recite the patriotic poem "Hail to The Leader!" before each meal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ned Collectors's national animal is the ned, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ned Collectors is ranked 201,985^th in the world and 46^th in Realm for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -3.16 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
