The Armed Republic of New Caman is a very large, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 114 million New Camanians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.4%.

The New Camanian economy, worth 5.28 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 46,309 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Government officials have to mortgage their homes to make ends meet, the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', in musicals everybody's a little bit racist, and the government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Caman's national animal is the whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

New Caman is ranked 212,801^st in the world and 2,817^th in the West Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -1.91 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
