The Republic of New Csessia is a mammoth, safe nation, notable for its zero percent divorce rate, ban on automobiles, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, devout population of 6.096 billion New Csessians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 26.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The New Csessian economy, worth 303 trillion pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 49,833 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Swans with strange deformities like three eyes and tentacles have been seen prancing through the countryside where industrial waste is dumped, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, ancestry test results arrive bundled with patent applications, and dubiously qualified Skandilundian barristers keep referring to laws as 'government guidelines'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Csessia's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Csessia is ranked 119,790^th in the world and 17^th in Lassa for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,168.04 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
