The Empire of Visigotha Nova is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by YTrojan with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, rampant corporate plagiarism, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 12.418 billion Visigoths are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Education also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.7%.

The very strong Visigothic economy, worth a remarkable 1,079 trillion Euros a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Book Publishing. Average income is 86,955 Euros, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 317,307 per year while the poor average 16,919, a ratio of 18.8 to 1.

Religion is strictly forbidden within school grounds, drivers regularly pull over for nonexistent police cars, the Grinder at Fat Sal's Deli and Recycling Center is a national institution, and you need two tenors and a coloratura contralto to sing the national anthem properly. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Visigotha Nova's national animal is the Vulture, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cult of Worms Armageddon.

Visigotha Nova is ranked 266,815th in the world and 9,867th in Balder for Highest Food Quality, scoring 6.95 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
