The Reformed State of Nova Hrodsk is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Marshal Laran Jersvotif with an iron fist, and renowned for its closed borders, frequent executions, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 18.66 billion Hrodskians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lesrenitsa. The average income tax rate is 86.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Nova Hrodskian economy, worth a remarkable 2,196 trillion Žjamts a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,692 Žjamts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Colonies are told they'll get their sovereignty back when they finish supper, fake beard sales are on the rise amongst female commuters, gay couples who hold hands are forced into unbreakable bonds, and public transit is widely considered to be perpetrating the patriarchy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova Hrodsk's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Rukamara according to Hrodskian Rites.

Nova Hrodsk is ranked 9,453^rd in the world and 3^rd in Montealba for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 5,759.79 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
