The Federal Republic of New Allegheny is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by John Warhol with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 1.427 billion New Alleghenyians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pittsburgh. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient New Alleghenyian economy, worth 75.5 trillion Dollars 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 Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 52,890 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, government leaders testify at international tribunals on why the sun went out, debates on whether toilet seats should be left up or down are increasingly commonplace, and the minority inevitably have their addenda vetoed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Allegheny's national animal is the Coyote, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Allegheny is ranked 39,717^th in the world and 342^nd in the Rejected Realms for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,298.65 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
