The Grand Militariat Republic of Nova-Columbia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by First Marshal Andronikos with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 12.701 billion Columbians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tiir. The average income tax rate is 73.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nova-Columbian economy, worth a remarkable 2,020 trillion Mazyrs a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 159,066 Mazyrs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fruit pickers with degrees in Columbian Falcon psychology are a common sight, the country's population is reported with a margin of error of several billions, babies are a small but significant export, and scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova-Columbia's national animal is the Columbian Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Trivere.

Nova-Columbia is ranked 102,240^th in the world and 1,998^th in The East Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 42,629.85 Standard Monetary Units.
