The Republic of New Nanyang is a large, cultured nation, remarkable for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate population of 50 million New Nanyangians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 49.8%.

The New Nanyangian economy, worth 2.84 trillion Nanyang dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 56,739 Nanyang dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.

New Nanyangian husbands are dead good at fathering kids, one-stop superstores divide and conquer family businesses, Lions are considered a delicacy, and academics have a bone to pick with free market entrepreneurs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Nanyang's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

New Nanyang is ranked 103,165^th in the world and 2,628^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,940.16 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
