The Federation of Neu Arcadia is a small, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 29 million Neu Arcadians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 60.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Neu Arcadian economy, worth 1.08 trillion pengoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 37,084 pengoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The big red machine has ground to a halt, ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, national foreign policy involves significant amounts of hand wringing, and films are funded in accordance with the volume of tears shed when reading the screenplay. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neu Arcadia's national animal is the wolf.

Neu Arcadia is ranked 325,389^th in the world and 274^th in Aesica for Largest Black Market, with 1.00 billion Standard Monetary Units.
