The Commonwealth of Nefas is a very large, cultured nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 278 million Nefasians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.

The powerhouse Nefasian economy, worth 25.9 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 93,261 dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 669,439 per year while the poor average 4,206, a ratio of 159 to 1.

The entire entry for Nefas in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the World reads 'mostly harmless', the government says only criminals harp on about "innocent until proven guilty", a popular saying is "a chicken for every pot and an abortion clinic on every street", and political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Nefas's national animal is the orangutan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Nefas is ranked 281,688^th in the world and 4,097^th in the South Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 4,206.81 Standard Monetary Units.
