The Socialist Democracy of New Albuquerque is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Skyler White with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, daily referendums, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 23.027 billion Albuquerqueans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Los Alamos. The average income tax rate is 97.9%.

The frighteningly efficient New Albuquerquean economy, worth a remarkable 3,096 trillion Dunning-Krugerrands a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 134,455 Dunning-Krugerrands, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, movies depict muscle-bound women kicking down a titanium door to carry hysterical men to safety, imitation is the sincerest form of felony, and EpiPen sales have skyrocketed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Albuquerque's national animal is the Platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

New Albuquerque is ranked 88,445th in the world and 1,258th in the Rejected Realms for Most Stationary, with 514.87882325512 days.
