The Republic of Newit is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by President Nick with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 2.458 billion Newitians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The relatively small, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nickin. The average income tax rate is 25.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Newitian economy, worth 422 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 171,789 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The military has grudgingly released all top secret information in an effort for greater transparency, the nation's reinforced coffee tables are constructed to survive an atomic blast, keeping the lights on keeps the lights on for increasing amounts of Newitians, and businessmen behave differently if their supervisor is watching. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Newit's national animal is the bald eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Newit is ranked 289,829^th in the world and 34^th in Antarctica for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -4.47 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
