The 25 Districts of New Libraria is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its public floggings, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 666 million New Librarians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government prioritizes Education, although Industry, Healthcare, and Welfare are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Babel. The average income tax rate is 36.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse New Librarian economy, worth 58.9 trillion ahns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,446 ahns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The annual budget is heralded by the Treasury Minister donning a fake plastic mustache and giant star-shaped glasses, the television adaptation of Jennifer Government is the most popular program in the nation, doctors accused of having no heart reply that cardiology isn't their speciality, and it is technically inaccurate to call the dead 'worm food'. Crime is totally unknown. New Libraria's national animal is the serpent, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Libraria is ranked 22,706^th in the world and 170^th in Europeia for Nicest Citizens, with 21.52 average smiles per day.
