The Free Land of New Ciritea is a huge, cultured nation, ruled by CEO Steal F Rompoor with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, barren, inhospitable landscape, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 848 million New Ciriteans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, although Industry and Education are also considered important, while Environment and Law & Order receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Free City of Sona. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The frighteningly efficient New Ciritean economy, worth 117 trillion 9mm rounds 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, Soda Sales, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 138,535 9mm rounds, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 790,785 per year while the poor average 11,762, a ratio of 67.2 to 1.

Murderers and thieves claim divine inspiration to avoid prosecution, census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, many believe that the only good Nonexistent Hawk is a dead Nonexistent Hawk, and multiple births are a cause of celebration for tax collectors. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. New Ciritea's national animal is the Nonexistent Hawk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

New Ciritea is ranked 28,134th in the world and 4th in United Capitalist Territories for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 7,226.59 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
