The Supreme Arcane Imperium of New Anterea is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Her Majesty Queen Hermetica Lothremis with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.163 billion New Antereans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alfheim. The average income tax rate is 81.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming New Anterean economy, worth 590 trillion Aether Rocks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 114,323 Aether Rocks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, the tribal zone has been opened to up to 'economic interest' groups, the average commuter spends four hours a day driving to and from work, and you can check out of an asylum if you've changed your mind. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Anterea's national animal is the Shining Fairy, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Order of The All Mother.

New Anterea is ranked 206,317^th in the world and 3,945^th in the South Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.5 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
