The Rogue Nation of Noobwaffelton is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by ZERO with an even hand, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 12.621 billion Noobwaffeltonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Noobwaffeltropolis. The average income tax rate is 87.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Noobwaffeltonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,061 trillion Zenis 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 dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 163,336 Zenis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections, political scientists despair as the national mascot election eclipses all others in voter enthusiasm, the only places to see Komodo Dragons now are at local zoos, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Noobwaffelton's national animal is the Komodo Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Noobwaffelton is ranked 267,213th in the world and 9,974th in Lazarus for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -6.63 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
