The Freethinker's Spading Union of New Kamakuri is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, complete absence of social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 21.529 billion New Kamakurians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kasumi col Annette. The average income tax rate is 72.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New Kamakurian economy, worth a remarkable 3,352 trillion Valines a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 155,719 Valines, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The right school tie opens more doors than the right qualification, politicians tend to speak more loudly and slowly these days, it turns out that your missing Roomba has run off to join the circus, and editorials that criticize the government are legally obligated to display the "pants on fire" warning. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Kamakuri's national animal is the Grey Speckled Wyvern, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Pastafarian-Deism.

New Kamakuri is ranked 31,806th in the world and 1,669th in Balder for Safest, scoring 108.54 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
