The Elefriends of South Newlandia is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its anti-smoking policies, keen interest in outer space, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 14.396 billion South Newlandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elephant Valley. The average income tax rate is 97.0%.

The frighteningly efficient South Newlandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,110 trillion Newls a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 146,583 Newls, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's a bright dawn ahead for South Newlandia, droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, and South Newlandian tourists are encouraged to hand out spare condoms to locals while on vacation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. South Newlandia's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

South Newlandia is ranked 322,286th in the world and 49th in Esportiva for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -11.31 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
