The Dominion of Neweath is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by VLADIMIR with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, aversion to nipples, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 4.283 billion Vikings are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berserker. The average income tax rate is 92.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Neweathian economy, worth 794 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 185,562 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Copies of the constitution are used as toilet paper, gambling is outlawed, all government communication requires the imprimatur of the Truth Police, and home renovation shows are increasingly popular. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neweath's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Wotanism.

Neweath is ranked 7,595^th in the world and 404^th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 106.63 law-abiding acts per hour.
