The Mojave Wasteland of New Cali Republic is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President Aaron Kimball with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, aversion to nipples, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 2.896 billion New California Republicians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shady Sands. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 49.8%.

The frighteningly efficient New Cali Republician economy, worth 428 trillion NCR Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 147,898 NCR Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 477,992 per year while the poor average 34,583, a ratio of 13.8 to 1.

Citizens applying for their first jobs face fierce competition from the homeless, the government is continually probing the galaxy in search of alien life, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, and torture is illegal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Cali Republic's national animal is the Two-Headed Grizzly Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

New Cali Republic is ranked 96,118^th in the world and 7^th in Kryndel for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,069.92 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
