The Republic of New Unicania is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, pith helmet sales, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 478 million Unicanians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 27.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Unicanian economy, worth 34.6 trillion Carps a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 72,383 Carps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Cigarettes are dead-cheap, extreme hiring regulations mean a job in New Unicania is often a lifetime appointment, politicians tend to jump ship to whichever party is currently leading in the polls, and the nation threatens sanctions on islands only visible at low tide. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. New Unicania's national animal is the Dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

New Unicania is ranked 58,745^th in the world and 184^th in Concord for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 52,622.82 Standard Monetary Units.
