The Imperial Union of New Pruessen is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Chancellor Norden with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, keen interest in outer space, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 4.139 billion Pruessisches have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Königsberg. The average income tax rate is 20.4%.

The frighteningly efficient New Pruessenian economy, worth 702 trillion Thalers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 169,793 Thalers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high, people caught mistreating New Pruessen's flag generally wind up in a great deal of pain, employees who skip lunch to avoid sub-par cafeteria food risk getting fired, and five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. New Pruessen's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Lutheranism.

New Pruessen is ranked 31,575^th in the world and 1,535^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 3,151.19 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
