The Federation of New us ville is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Wycliffe Charles Lodestar with a fair hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, otherworldly petting zoo, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 22.323 billion New us villeans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alixville. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.9%.

The frighteningly efficient New us villean economy, worth a remarkable 6,366 trillion Adokins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 285,180 Adokins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,168,077 per year while the poor average 46,032, a ratio of 25.4 to 1.

Rude retail employees are now even ruder homeless panhandlers, environmentalists are advocating slash-and-burn in the nation's forests, a government program is underway to revitalize New us ville's beaches, and formerly fertile fields are being leached dry of nutrients by intensive farming. Crime is totally unknown. New us ville's national animal is the Pentade, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New us ville is ranked 804^th in the world and 32^nd in The North Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 279,762.48 Standard Monetary Units.
