The Armed Republic States of New Selkirk is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Robby California with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, infamous sell-swords, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cheerful population of 2.959 billion Dreddeds are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dreadd City. The average income tax rate is 87.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient New Selkirkian economy, worth 485 trillion Imperial Gold Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 163,926 Imperial Gold Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
A typical fast food menu item could serve a small army, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, revolutionaries only deal in CyanCatCoin, and Robby California is quite hard to get a hold of. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Selkirk's national animal is the Juicer-Dreddz, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
New Selkirk is ranked 22,720th in the world and 895th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 88 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
