The Community of Nova Acadia is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Mitzi Gerowitz with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 5.35 billion Acadiaks are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cascadia. The average income tax rate is 99.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Acadian economy, worth a remarkable 1,152 trillion YS a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 215,499 YS, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nobody ever questions the unquestioned rule that questions must always be asked, taxpayer money is hard at work exorcizing laundry, the jails are alive with the sound of birdsong, and patch v22.1705 - all developers are now paid for work. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova Acadia's national animal is the Acadian Seal, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Sealism.

Nova Acadia is ranked 119,576^th in the world and 111^th in Kelios for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 1,503.66 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
