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

The Federation of Novosibersk is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its public floggings, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 259 million Novosiberskians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sibir. The average income tax rate is 71.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Novosiberski economy, worth 20.1 trillion Sibersk Rubles a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,541 Sibersk Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Curtailed social programs have left many citizens bereft of any safety net, "Leader got your tongue?" has become a popular idiom, artists regularly face criminal charges and art-burning parties are common, and unpackaged foodstuffs rot on store shelves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Novosibersk's national animal is the Snow Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Novosibersk is ranked 47,043^rd in the world and 1,037^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 156 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
