The Vaunted Vault of New Fort Knox is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, avant-garde cinema, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 23.537 billion New Fort Knoxians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, with Administration and Defense also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of El Dorado. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.2%.

The frighteningly efficient New Fort Knoxian economy, worth a remarkable 2,776 trillion goldpieces a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 117,944 goldpieces, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 588,841 per year while the poor average 13,300, a ratio of 44.3 to 1.

Treaties are taken to be mere rules of thumb, adverts depict men giving birth while cursing the women who got them into trouble, most ambassadors from New Fort Knox retire only a few years after being appointed, and internet trolls are considered valiant supporters of the right to free speech. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. New Fort Knox's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is greed.

New Fort Knox is ranked 276,129^th in the world and 97^th in Capitalist Paradise for Highest Food Quality, scoring 6.3 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
