The Federation of Novosibersk is a huge, cultured nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 237 million Novosiberskians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Novosiberski economy, worth 18.0 trillion Sibersk Rubles a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 75,971 Sibersk Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces, skateparks can be found in every city, strange lights seen in the sky are officially regarded as weather balloons or hoaxes and nothing else, and couples kissing on the street are detained for 'unlawful exchange of genetic material'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Novosibersk's national animal is the Snow Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Novosibersk is ranked 39,770^th in the world and 655^th in the South Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 32.44 flags saluted per person per day.
