The Technocratic Republic of Noimosini is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Director General Magwitch with an even hand, and renowned for its vat-grown people, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 8.966 billion Noimosinians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ergastirio. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Noimosinian economy, worth a remarkable 2,560 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 285,612 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People stand their fridges back-to-front to benefit from the free heating, electricians spend more time in school than doctors, whipping posts and lashes have been transferred to the Historical Museum of Noimosinian Embarrassments, and the media seems excessively interested in what Director General Magwitch is wearing this season. Crime is totally unknown. Noimosini's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Noimosini is ranked 450^th in the world and 13^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 1,222.37 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
