The Deadly Nation of New Deathland is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Grim Reaper with an iron fist, and notable for its fear of technology, state-planned economy, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.652 billion New Deathlandians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Old Meathland. The average income tax rate is 89.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New Deathlandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,027 trillion Lives 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, Uranium Mining, Retail, and Information Technology. 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 181,765 Lives, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Homophobia is off the menu, dinosaur breeders have a yabba-dabba-doo gay old time in New Deathland, getting an infected tattoo is considered a rite of passage in New Deathland, and the diplomatic corps tends to open negotiations by insulting all the foreigners in the room. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Deathland's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Reaperisam.

New Deathland is ranked 10,225^th in the world and 4^th in The Embassy for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 11,064.73 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
