The Commonwealth of New England-Acadia is a massive, safe nation, notable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.12 billion New England-Acadians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Boston. The average income tax rate is 71.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient New England-Acadian economy, worth 82.2 trillion Pine Shillings a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 38,770 Pine Shillings, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prison visits increase substantially during election years, schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students, Leader's exquisite office door is replaced monthly due to angry petitioners, and the nation's Medal of Honour can be found as a free toy in breakfast cereal. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New England-Acadia's national animal is the Maine Coon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

New England-Acadia is ranked 23,976^th in the world and 54^th in Commonwealth of Liberty for Most Beautiful Environments, with 928.19 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
