The Dominion of Newfoundland is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Paul Davis with an even hand, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, national health service, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed population of 27.91 billion Newfoundlanders are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Johns. The average income tax rate is 41.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Newfoundlander economy, worth 797 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 28,564 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The armed forces have designated 'murder teams' that root out rebels in Brasilistan, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation', and restaurants are required to specify whether their toilet paper was made in Newfoundland. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Newfoundland's national animal is the cod, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Newfoundland is ranked 239,404th in the world and 20th in Terranova for Nudest, with 78.75 cheeks per square mile.
