The United Socialist States of The Nothe is a very large, genial nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 218 million Nothanites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 44.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Nothan economy, worth 5.19 trillion Rupees a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 23,826 Rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, the most popular WhoTube videos are ones featuring parodies of iconic songs, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, and families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Nothe's national animal is the Fennec Fox.

The Nothe is ranked 115,366^th in the world and 2^nd in Siblingd for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 2,451.3 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
