The Kingdom of New Lewesia is a small, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 45 million New Lewesians 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 juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 10.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient New Lewesian economy, worth 1.94 trillion Lewesian Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 43,073 Lewesian Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, last minute own-goals raise the suspicious eyebrows of sporting authorities, and money that should have gone to charities is instead spent on monitoring them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. New Lewesia's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
New Lewesia is ranked 39,444th in the world and 731st in the South Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,257.89 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
