The Confederacy of Novo Sharkistan is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Autokator Brandon Sharkanov with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.344 billion Sharkistanis 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neu Sharkstadt. The average income tax rate is 45.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Novo Sharkistanian economy, worth 247 trillion Imperiums a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,935 Imperiums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Terrified tympanists are finding themselves on the front lines armed only with kettledrums, guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, skateparks can be found in every city, and old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Novo Sharkistan's national animal is the Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Sharkovia.

Novo Sharkistan is ranked 94,147th in the world and 48th in The League for Most Stationary, with 485.1531270018 days.
