The Commonwealth of NewOldLand is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Georgio Brandino Mozzarella with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.98 billion NewOldLandians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 19.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient NewOldLandian economy, worth 722 trillion Francoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 145,013 Francoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign 'investors' have been taking a great interest in the new secret shuttle, the housing market has collapsed like an overbaked Brancalandian souffle, worrywarts have started advocating for a paint ban, and the government runs a surplus by selling its citizens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. NewOldLand's national animal is the Naked Mole rat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

NewOldLand is ranked 75,503^rd in the world and 63^rd in Cape of Good Hope for Lowest Crime Rates, with 69.33 law-abiding acts per hour.
