The Republic of Newpan is a mammoth, safe nation, renowned for its burgeoning unicorn population. The quiet, industrious population of 8.045 billion Newpanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 30.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Newpanian economy, worth 214 trillion francs a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 26,712 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Newpan's national animal is the unicorn.

Newpan is ranked 187,133^rd in the world and 2^nd in New Pangea for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 312.46 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
