The Federation of New Gannistan is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 441 million New Gannistanians 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 Education, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 50.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish New Gannistanian economy, worth 10.9 trillion Fis a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 24,792 Fis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, crowds of flag-burning protesters tend to accidentally become crowds of burning protesters, high school boys are required to pass vigorous self-mastery and sensitivity training to graduate, and New Gannistan has designated New Gannistan City as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Gannistan's national animal is the Draught Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Gannistan is ranked 148,469^th in the world and 16^th in the Obsidian Highlands for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 411.77 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
