The Commonwealth of New Frysland is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Eliza Olerink with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 5.519 billion New Fryslandians 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 Frydlandsburg. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient New Fryslandian economy, worth 862 trillion kromers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 156,276 kromers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The New Frysland Enquirer offers weekly cash prizes for 'most blasphemous song, story, or cartoon', barbed wire entanglements and guard towers surround the Frydlandsburg Natural History Museum, vegetables are crisper thanks to CRISPR, and the weather in Frydlandsburg is always 'pigeons with a chance of droppings'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Frysland's national animal is the iridiscent softbill, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Frysland is ranked 288,829^th in the world and 67^th in Libertarian Socialist Confederation for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -23.02 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
