The Welfare Collective of New Noveria is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The Volition of the People with a fair hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, ban on automobiles, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 16.347 billion New Noverians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Tazovsky. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient New Noverian economy, worth a remarkable 5,061 trillion Roubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 309,607 Roubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High school band practice is often crashed by technicolor-clad ravers, student athletes gaze forlornly at abandoned Yakball fields, companies struggle to cover for the hordes of employees on parental leave, and the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Noveria's national animal is the Yak, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Pioneer Movement of New Noveria.

New Noveria is ranked 272,663^rd in the world and 6,659^th in Osiris for Most Avoided, scoring 0.24 on the Kardashian Reflex Score.
