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

The Commonwealth of New Lakemba is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Committee with a fair hand, and renowned for its national health service, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.865 billion New Lakembans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Healthcare, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Canberra. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient New Lakemban economy, worth a remarkable 3,250 trillion New Lakembian Standard Kebabs a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 273,947 New Lakembian Standard Kebabs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars, economists claim no news is good news, professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials, and political satirists and late night comedians weep as the government begins cleaning up its act. Crime is totally unknown. New Lakemba's national animal is the Animal Kingdom, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Lakemba is ranked 225,869^th in the world and 10,152^nd in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -41.45 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
