The Communist Dictatorship of New Prussianstan is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by King Ishkander VI with an iron fist, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, compulsory military service, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.319 billion New Prussianstanians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of East Wintreath City and West Ashford. The average income tax rate is 93.4%.

The frighteningly efficient New Prussianstanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,930 trillion Red Rubies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 232,023 Red Rubies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign nationals who stumble near New Prussianstan are harbingers of war, movie producers send film critics wads of cash in their morning newspapers in anticipation of gushing praise, half of New Prussianstanian history is deemed too unpatriotic to be mentioned in textbooks, and all funding starts one dime at a time. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Prussianstan's national animal is the Golden Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Bakaisim and Christianity.

New Prussianstan is ranked 298,389th in the world and 4th in Vair for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 15,313.54 Standard Monetary Units.
