The Kingdom of Nova Tobruk is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 5.273 billion Nova Tobrite are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Castle. The average income tax rate is 74.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nova Tobrite economy, worth 658 trillion Bobucks a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,917 Bobucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, foreign casinos have trouble paying fans who bet on the triumph of the The Castle Roombas against long odds, property subletting is going underground, and even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova Tobruk's national animal is the Roomba, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nova Tobruk is ranked 33,176th in the world and 492nd in The East Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 36.35 flags saluted per person per day.
