The Socialist Confederation of New Clavidor is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Chanceler Igor Césarovich with an even hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, digital currency, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.165 billion New Clavidorians 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 Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Krasnograd. The average income tax rate is 69.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse New Clavidorian economy, worth 124 trillion Clavoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 106,980 Clavoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

New Clavidor isn't what it used to be, bored politicians often entertain themselves with games of Simon during important votes, Chanceler Igor Césarovich is frequently seen begging critics to stop insulting the government, and the government is spending millions on alternative clean-burning fuels. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Clavidor's national animal is the Capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Marxism.

New Clavidor is ranked 219,141^st in the world and 5,030^th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.01 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
