The Empire of Ingentis Novus is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Dominus with an iron fist, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, anti-smoking policies, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 9.751 billion Ingentis Novusians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Castellum. The average income tax rate is 4.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Ingentis Novusian economy, worth a remarkable 2,521 trillion Nomismata a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 258,579 Nomismata, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, rumours have it that a secret police is responsible for the recent spate of missing persons, the government blames all suspicious phenomena on flying saucers, and more than one company makes the board game Monopoly. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ingentis Novus's national animal is the tardigrade, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Science.

Ingentis Novus is ranked 8,648th in the world and 136th in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 104 law-abiding acts per hour.
