The Armed Republic of New Burnet is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Draco Pensinger with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, daily referendums, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 6.602 billion New Burnetians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nazama. The average income tax rate is 69.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient New Burnetian economy, worth 874 trillion Scickles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 132,498 Scickles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The Messiah (formerly known as Brian) is a mayoral candidate, it is considered unpatriotic to learn a foreign language, wilderness-dwelling hermits are surprised to find railway stations on their front doorsteps, and posters on 'New Burnetian Values' advise against being proud of New Burnet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Burnet's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.
New Burnet is ranked 37,898th in the world and 42nd in Fifth Empire for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,865.51 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
