The Zombie Hunters of Almonaster Nuevo is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Alejandro de las Torres Altas with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 36.316 billion Nuevanos hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, with Administration, Environment, and Industry also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mizumigari. The average income tax rate is 32.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nuevan economy, worth an astonishing 15,212 trillion fracts a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 418,895 fracts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Record sales of 'child-whacking sticks' have been reported, the government has begun selling heroin and ecstasy to help fund its projects, citizens praise the weeds that overwhelm their narrow vegetable realm, and people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Almonaster Nuevo's national animal is the loon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Almonaster Nuevo is ranked 787^th in the world and 1^st in Canada for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 281,916.41 Standard Monetary Units.
