The Federation of New Gehenna is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Frost Carbon with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.349 billion New Gehennans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sajuuk. The average income tax rate is 83.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong New Gehennan economy, worth 910 trillion Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 123,884 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is something rotten in the state of New Gehenna, group hugs break out during floor votes, there's no such thing as bad publicity, and primetime re-runs of The Black and White Minstrel Show are a critical hit. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Gehenna's national animal is the Spinosaurus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Gehenna is ranked 128,231^st in the world and 4,920^th in The East Pacific for Most Pro-Market, scoring 38.33 on the Rand Index.
