The Helghast Kamui-Gumi of The New Age Empire is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Autarch Mael Radec with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, enslaved workforce, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.365 billion Helghast 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Helghan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25.6%.

The powerhouse Helghast economy, worth 541 trillion Purezkis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,124 Purezkis, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 572,683 per year while the poor average 16,261, a ratio of 35.2 to 1.

First-time moms are expected to be experienced parents from day one, holiday gift-giving is often peppered with songs of praise to morally-questionable televangelists, weird texts received at 2 a.m. are probably from the government, and pictures of government employees with expensive Pearbooks 'working' on exotic beaches dominate local tabloids. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The New Age Empire's national animal is the Helghan Spider, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Helghast Cult.

The New Age Empire is ranked 332,752nd in the world and 116th in Fifth Empire for Nicest Citizens, with 0.33 average smiles per day.
