The Republic of Noob4 is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its avant-garde cinema, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 3.233 billion Noob4ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 65.0%.

The very strong Noob4ian economy, worth 221 trillion Noobs a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,656 Noobs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 245,623 per year while the poor average 13,776, a ratio of 17.8 to 1.

Almost all of the nation's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices, the rich are once again pinching pennies, scientists are not permitted to ask questions, and citizens who don't follow a major religion are closely monitored for signs of self-harm. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Noob4's national animal is the Noob, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Noob4 is ranked 67,145th in the world and 21st in Noob for Lowest Crime Rates, with 73.71 law-abiding acts per hour.
