The Empire of NewIberia is a large, orderly nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, anti-smoking policies, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 68 million NewIberians 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 large, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Spirituality, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 60.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The NewIberian economy, worth 3.25 trillion Imperial Reais a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,811 Imperial Reais, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Court verdicts are predictable to within a hundredth of a percentage point, fitness to teach sport is proven by urinating the furthest up a wall, the nation is famous for having one of the world's largest Iberian Pig hunting institutions, and eminent domain has been abolished. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. NewIberia's national animal is the Iberian Pig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

NewIberia is ranked 73,977th in the world and 757th in the West Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 23.27 kickbacks per hour.
