The Armed Republic of Nu-Normandy is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, state-planned economy, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.139 billion Nu-Normandyians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 93.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nu-Normandyian economy, worth 187 trillion Nukes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 164,361 Nukes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Organ donation is compulsory, the nation frequently scolds its subject territories for staying up past bedtime, the nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, and the Counter-Terrorism Unit has been nicknamed "Big Bad Wolf" for its tendency towards urban demolition. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nu-Normandy's national animal is the Nuke, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Nu-Normandy is ranked 8,070th in the world and 5th in The Great Monarchical Nations for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 6,393.47 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
