The National Meritocratic State of New Fildea is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Michael Hartz with an even hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, ban on automobiles, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.412 billion Neofildeans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Newbein. The average income tax rate is 69.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Neofildean economy, worth 232 trillion mances a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 164,445 mances, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Atheists on vacation find Christianism's scriptures make useful doorstops, the end of communism came with retail rather than revolution, war vets look after war animals, and a weakened police force struggles to maintain law and order. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Fildea's national animal is the Blonde Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianism.

New Fildea is ranked 18,926^th in the world and 31^st in Fifth Empire for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 6,653.43 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
