The Kingdom of Nova Tobruk is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 5.216 billion Nova Tobrite are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Castle. The average income tax rate is 73.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nova Tobrite economy, worth 668 trillion Bobucks a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,135 Bobucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, foreign casinos have trouble paying fans who bet on the triumph of the The Castle Roombas against long odds, property subletting is going underground, and even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova Tobruk's national animal is the Roomba, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nova Tobruk is ranked 118,234th in the world and 1,997th in The East Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,161.19 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
