The Republic of Niwisian is a large, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 56 million Niwisianians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 46.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Niwisianian economy, worth 1.37 trillion Guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 24,455 Guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Light entertainment isn't dead, government officials are held to the highest standard of morality, old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, and anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Niwisian's national animal is the Pangolin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Niwisian is ranked 69,316^th in the world and 139^th in United Kingdom for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 439.37 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
