The Republic of Newvahner is a massive, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning cow population. The hard-working population of 1.745 billion Newvahnerians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 16.7%.

The Newvahnerian economy, worth 80.4 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Average income is 46,054 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Newvahner's national animal is the cow.

Newvahner is ranked 240,944^th in the world and 892^nd in Concord for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 16.65 Effective Tax Rate.
