The United States of New samba is a very large, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, infamous sell-swords, and aversion to nipples. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 131 million Sambians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 31.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Sambians economy, worth 6.25 trillion Simbabs a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,709 Simbabs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The same 131 social media bloggers always loudly and immediately agree with Leader's every word on Twitcher, family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries, immigrants are required to salute the flag five times a day, and broken suspension systems are giving auto repair shops plenty of business. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New samba's national animal is the Sambian Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New samba is ranked 90,212^th in the world and 3^rd in Tammy for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 91.38 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
