The Federal Republic of Nesalria is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Iselin Solem with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 7.589 billion Nesalrians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Domonston. The average income tax rate is 84.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nesalrian economy, worth 990 trillion Nesalrian Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 130,495 Nesalrian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The 'kind of scrawny' 500 meter hurdle is a popular event, wealthy pranksters dump refuse on unsuspecting citizens from up high, homophobia is off the menu, and 100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nesalria's national animal is the Bearded Vulture, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Nesalria is ranked 3,880^th in the world and 100^th in Europe for Nicest Citizens, with 52.38 average smiles per day.
