The Democratic States of Nomia is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Solar with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.614 billion Nomians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of December City. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nomian economy, worth a remarkable 1,374 trillion Crystals a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 180,469 Crystals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military pilots spend more time scraping feathers off their engines than flying their aircraft, nuclear physics is the most popular course at university, bombs are permitted on planes for the 'security of the passengers', and exiles see that the line where the sky meets the sea is just clouds and rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nomia's national animal is the Chinchilla, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Astronomy.

Nomia is ranked 101,773^rd in the world and 61^st in Conch Kingdom for Largest Populations, with 7.61 billion capita.
