Overview • Factbook • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Maritime Country of Newfoundland and Gaspesie is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Joey Smallwood with an even hand, and remarkable for its avant-garde cinema, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.798 billion Newfoundlander and Gaspésians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Johns. The average income tax rate is 74.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Newfoundlander and Gaspésian economy, worth 483 trillion Newfoundland and Gaspésie Pound Sterlings a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 127,263 Newfoundland and Gaspésie Pound Sterlings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, prohibition has allowed a Maxtopian immigrant known only as "Nipples" to establish an illicit breast milk syndicate, the government believes there is no problem that raising taxes won't fix, and birth rates have hit an all-time low. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Newfoundland and Gaspesie's national animal is the Atlantic Puffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Protestantism.

Newfoundland and Gaspesie is ranked 9,817^th in the world and 32^nd in Canada for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,608.5 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
