The Federation of New Gehenna is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Frost Carbon with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 16.89 billion New Gehennans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wertfort. The average income tax rate is 92.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming New Gehennan economy, worth a remarkable 2,339 trillion Credits a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 138,486 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Asthmatics can now suffer the effects of polluting chimneys from further away than ever before, handling people's data is proving an immersive experience, a common response to government PSAs is "well, DUH, obviously", and there's nothing more rock-and-roll than absolute sobriety. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Gehenna's national animal is the Spinosaurus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Gehenna is ranked 273,040^th in the world and 4,417^th in The East Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -6.32 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
