The Federation of Np 59 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its parental licensing program, smutty television, and compulsory gun ownership. The cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.869 billion Np 59ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 50.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Np 59ian economy, worth 961 trillion nps a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,458 nps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, doctors spend more time writing sick notes than caring for the sick, young girls aren't having a ball but they are enjoying themselves, and agriculture is heavily subsidized by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Np 59's national animal is the np, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Np 59 is ranked 127,335th in the world and 5,005th in Balder for Highest Food Quality, scoring 18.39 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
