The Commonwealth of Nova Ceuta is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 576 million Nova Ceutans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valudz. The average income tax rate is 48.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Nova Ceutsian economy, worth 30.4 trillion Moedas a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,702 Moedas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

It's normal to start working life with crippling financial debt, the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, news headlines suggest that Leader has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, and lonely people are supposed to be cheered up by the many parties that they are never invited to. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova Ceuta's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Nova Ceuta is ranked 217,619^th in the world and 63^rd in Lone Wolves United for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 46.56 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
