The Republic of New Covina

“If Kastle likes, Kastle buys”

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

The Republic of New Covina is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Supreme Leader Kastle with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 12.864 billion New Covinans 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Los Angeles. The average income tax rate is 76.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New Covinan economy, worth a remarkable 1,841 trillion Kastle's Monies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 143,152 Kastle's Monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A positive pregnancy test doubles as a visa, Supreme Leader Kastle's iHouse is so intelligent that it manages its own social media accounts, demand for gourmet white truffles is on the rise, and young schoolchildren pledge allegiance to One Nation Under Bum Indivisible By Poo. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Covina's national animal is the Utopiary, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

New Covina is ranked 73,196^th in the world and 1^st in A Kitten Loving Fudge Based Democracy for Highest Wealthy Incomes, with 188,029 Standard Monetary Units.
