The Armed Republic of New Centurion is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Darth Vader with a fair hand, and notable for its teetotalling pirates, unlimited-speed roads, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 12.717 billion New Centurionians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Death Star. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.
The frighteningly efficient New Centurionian economy, worth a remarkable 8,160 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is a breathtaking 641,667 Credits, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,669,022 per year while the poor average 54,270, a ratio of 67.6 to 1.
Agricultural employees work for peanuts, much of New Centurion's computer network is controlled by a rampant artificial intelligence, one can walk from one side of Death Star to the other without setting foot on New Centurionian soil, and the slowest students feel vaguely targeted by their Mendelian Inheritance coursework. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Centurion's national animal is the Mouse Droid, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
New Centurion is ranked 289,710th in the world and 4,665th in the South Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 10,266.68 Standard Monetary Units.
