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

The Portugalacian Kingdom of Nova Espana is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Rei João Ferreira with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.397 billion Portugalacians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lisboa. The average income tax rate is 57.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Nova Espanan economy, worth 644 trillion Escudoes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 100,816 Escudoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Mall countdown clocks warn that there are only 364 more shopping days until Maxxmas, rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, and weird kids who eat bugs are breaking the law. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova Espana's national animal is the Iberian Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nova Espana is ranked 286,703^rd in the world and 1,367^th in Europe for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -16.06 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
