The Republic of New Dundland is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ricky Steamboat with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 3.799 billion New Dundlandians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stalingrad. The average income tax rate is 76.0%.

The frighteningly efficient New Dundlandian economy, worth 581 trillion Dundland dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 153,173 Dundland dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians can't accept birthday presents from their own children, dinner parties often end in politically charged fist fights, politicians are often seen with soldiers pointing guns at their heads, and roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Dundland's national animal is the Jackass, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Holy Yale of Bread.

New Dundland is ranked 11,533^rd in the world and 256^th in the Rejected Realms for Highest Food Quality, scoring 151.43 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
