The Federation of Novosibersk is a very large, orderly nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 110 million Novosiberskians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 69.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Novosiberski economy, worth 4.59 trillion Sibersk Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 41,716 Sibersk Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A stitch in time could see you serving nine, scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, and police wait behind troop deployments in order to shoot deserters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Novosibersk's national animal is the Snow Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Novosibersk is ranked 42,946^th in the world and 962^nd in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 76.65 law-abiding acts per hour.
