The Constitutional Monarchy of New Belia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Leader Harwell with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 16.466 billion New Belians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Belia City. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient New Belian economy, worth a remarkable 3,556 trillion Marks a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 215,970 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common, repurposed warships fire swag at company promotional events, wind farms are erected on shuttered oil platforms, and engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?". Crime is totally unknown. New Belia's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Belia is ranked 21,223^rd in the world and 133^rd in the West Pacific for Nudest, with 218.5 cheeks per square mile.
