The Commonwealth of New Lakemba is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by The Committee with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 19.449 billion New Lakembans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Canberra. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient New Lakemban economy, worth a remarkable 6,673 trillion New Lakembian Standard Kebabs a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 343,130 New Lakembian Standard Kebabs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Builders across New Lakemba are blocked up with orders for new public loos, national parks have long lines of different gender-specific 'Porta-Pottys', family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries, and thieves find battery shops juicier targets than banks. Crime is totally unknown. New Lakemba's national animal is the Animal Kingdom, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Lakemba is ranked 497th in the world and 25th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 197.24 law-abiding acts per hour.
