The Community of Neo-Commune is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Leah Reclus with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.004 billion Neo-Communards are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of l'Inter. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Neo-Communard economy, worth 389 trillion florains a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 129,712 florains, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every spring railroad foundations erode to reveal human remains, Neo-Communard politics is literally a blood sport, military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, and trains and passengers alike are often late. Crime is totally unknown. Neo-Commune's national animal is the Hedgehog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Neo-Commune is ranked 147,967^th in the world and 191^st in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Populations, with 3.00 billion capita.
