The People's Republic of New Reds is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Flipper with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, enslaved workforce, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 24.646 billion New Redsians 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 enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dolphin City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.5%.

The frighteningly efficient New Redsian economy, worth a remarkable 3,414 trillion Fish a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Uranium Mining, Retail, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 138,561 Fish, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 578,154 per year while the poor average 21,676, a ratio of 26.7 to 1.

Eating kids as food has been enshrined in law, citizens' names are redacted on their IDs for national security, disputed territories across Nederland are being claimed by New Redsian college students, and war memorials have been modified to include hammocks for napping. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Reds's national animal is the Dolphin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Atheism.

New Reds is ranked 5,926^th in the world and 35^th in Nederland for Most Primitive, scoring 113.91 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
