The Empire of New Canadian Monochrist Empire is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its daily referendums, compulsory military service, and zero percent divorce rate. The democratic population of 200 million Canadians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 43.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Canadian economy, worth 10.2 trillion Queen Plateses 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 slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Pizza Delivery, and Cheese Exports. 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 51,217 Queen Plateses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

CSI Forest is this year's hit new crime show, criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, polychromatic seas of leaves blanket the ground while sewers and drain pipes are clogged by their detritus, and most believe it doesn't hurt to embrace free trade. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Canadian Monochrist Empire's national animal is the Saskatchewan Thoroughbred Horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

New Canadian Monochrist Empire is ranked 218,743^rd in the world and 4,641^st in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -3.54 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
