“Duty, Honor, Loyalty”

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

The Federated Commonwealth of New Syrtis is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by First Minister Jethro Hasek III with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, infamous sell-swords, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate population of 22.449 billion New Syrtians 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 medium-sized government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Industry, and Healthcare are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saso. The average income tax rate is 41.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong New Syrtisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,411 trillion thalers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is 62,887 thalers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Group hugs break out during floor votes, cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, serial killers who are released early distribute death but not their seed, and protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Syrtis's national animal is the snow cobra and its national religion is New Avalon Catholic Church.

New Syrtis is ranked 112,484^th in the world and 4^th in Vladivostok for Lowest Crime Rates, with 64.41 law-abiding acts per hour.
