The Armed Republic of New Odor is a titanic, orderly nation, notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 21.951 billion New Odorians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 50.9%.

The powerhouse New Odorian economy, worth a remarkable 1,903 trillion $$s a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Tourism. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 86,715 $$s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

The long arm of the law possesses a rather slow hand, owning a really cute pet is grounds for immediate investigation, voting for pro-Bigtopian candidates is voluntary, and every day's an auto-de-fé day. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Odor's national animal is the Death's-head Hawkmoth, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

New Odor is ranked 240,952^nd in the world and 1^st in New Order for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 595.52 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
