The Free Land of New NVegas is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, vat-grown people, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 275 million New NVegasians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bew Begas. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.1%.

The frighteningly efficient New NVegasian economy, worth 33.7 trillion Caps a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 122,637 Caps, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 519,267 per year while the poor average 18,710, a ratio of 27.8 to 1.

People seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, video evidence of cruel animal experiments tends to be of poor quality, students are explicitly allowed to write answers on their forearms before exams, and virtually all of the country's economic activity takes place in Bew Begas. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. New NVegas's national animal is the Human, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

New NVegas is ranked 197,194^th in the world and 4,931^st in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 46.68 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
