The United Socialist Provinces of New Taters is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Jeff TheCraig with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cheerful population of 9.148 billion Taters enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neu Lyngfeld. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient New Tatersian economy, worth a remarkable 1,643 trillion Tots a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 179,618 Tots, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Vegetables are crisper thanks to CRISPR, the government nonchalantly sells old nukes to other countries, rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, and advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Taters's national animal is the Feral French Fry, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Taters is ranked 288,880^th in the world and 7^th in The Warrior Alliance for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.37 kickbacks per hour.
