The Armed Republic of Nu-Normandy is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its closed borders, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.126 billion Nu-Normandyians 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nu-Normandyian economy, worth 183 trillion Nukes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 163,079 Nukes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign nationals are widely distrusted, the nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle, war is more of a science than an art, and fortified nursing homes are wracked with daily skirmishes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nu-Normandy's national animal is the Nuke, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Nu-Normandy is ranked 253,003^rd in the world and 24^th in The Great Monarchical Nations for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -7.2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
