The Republic of NovaRain is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Leader with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 23.024 billion NovaRainians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Citadel. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient NovaRainian economy, worth an astonishing 11,251 trillion Novas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 488,688 Novas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

One little fight can find you movin' to be the fresh prince of Ilba, some achieve retirement and some have retirement thrust upon them, scientists are terrified of fabulous new breakthroughs, and pinkie promises are a matter of life and death. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. NovaRain's national animal is the Kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

NovaRain is ranked 265^th in the world and 8^th in the Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 99.69 on the Human Development Index.
