The Federal Republic of New Seaford is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 171 million New Seafordians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 24.6%.

The strong New Seafordian economy, worth 9.82 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 57,446 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Doctors spend more time writing sick notes than caring for the sick, travelers are subject to extensive searches if beet stains are visible on their clothing, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, and families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Seaford's national animal is the Brown Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Seaford is ranked 151,686^th in the world and 132^nd in ainulindale for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 95.11 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
