The Allied States of Neu Vanderberg is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Harper Falkner with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, sprawling nuclear power plants, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.788 billion Neu Vanderbergers live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Meinfalke. The average income tax rate is 11.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Neu Vanderbergian economy, worth 210 trillion e-dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 117,705 e-dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Corporate lawyers are joyfully combing through the new tax code for any new loopholes for their clients, rundown towns are frequently sold to billionaires for their pet projects, the Museum of Blackacrean War Crimes is located on "Blackacre Did Nothing Wrong Avenue", and citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Neu Vanderberg's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Neu Vanderberg is ranked 5,642^nd in the world and 153^rd in the South Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 104,522.29 Standard Monetary Units.
