The Community of Nouvelle Picardie is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Titu Yupanki with a fair hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, ubiquitous missile silos, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 29.7 billion Nouvelle Picardieans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Education and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Law & Order receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cuzco. The average income tax rate is 55.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nouvelle Picardiean economy, worth a remarkable 5,582 trillion sols 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 a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Information Technology, 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 impressive 187,957 sols, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The intelligence community is playing 4-D chess with an imaginary spy network, discarded pennies litter the streets, sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park, and the Messiah (formerly known as Brian) is a mayoral candidate. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Nouvelle Picardie's national animal is the llama, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Nouvelle Picardie is ranked 81,657th in the world and 17th in European Union for Most Stationary, with 592.90692609488 days.
