The Federation of Narvatus II is a massive, safe nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 1.389 billion Narvatus IIians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 83.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Narvatus IIian economy, worth 30.5 trillion pounds a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Cheese Exports industry, with significant contributions from Gambling. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 21,953 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Getting your license is a rite of passage for young adults, the "Rump Diet" is all the rage, foreign leaders' Twitcher accounts are monitored for potential threats to national security, and tours to see the 'wild men of the mountains' are popular with tourists from the big cities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Narvatus II's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Narvatus II is ranked 194,438^th in the world and 31^st in Hive for Largest Populations, with 1.39 billion capita.
