The Peoples Republic of New United Common-lands is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Jezza Corbyn with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, rampant corporate plagiarism, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.593 billion Commoners 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 Ascension City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Common-lands economy, worth a remarkable 2,955 trillion Common Pounds 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 Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 308,114 Common Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, the hills are alive with the sound of ringtones, Jezza Corbyn lives life on the open road - complete with groupies, and the government funds large training centres to turn Doves into functioning members of society. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New United Common-lands's national animal is the Dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Common Yodlism.

New United Common-lands is ranked 305,585th in the world and 332nd in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Highest Disposable Incomes, with zero Standard Monetary Units.
