The Confederacy of New Anea, most commonly known as New Anea, is a nation in the Coalition of Crown Albatross located on the continent of Nortua, bordered by Vuswistan, Xevus, Besmenia, and Utobania, and to the north maritime with the Northern Ocean. It has the northern-most permanently inhabited place in the world, at latitude 82°30'05" north, 817 kilometres (508 mi) from the North Pole, located at Recon Percilius Joint Research Station on Percilius Jacobeir Island. New Anea has a total population of 5.3 million of which 1.6 million have a foreign background. Persons with foreign backgrounds are defined as persons who are foreign born, or born in New Anea with foreign born parents. It has a low population density of 25 inhabitants per square kilometre (65/sq mi), with 1 437 persons per km² in localities. 87% of New Aneans live in urban areas, which cover 1.5% of the entire land area. The highest concentration is in the central and southern half of the country, in the capital of Eblium or near the border with Vuswistan and Utobania.

Various Indigenous peoples have continuously inhabited what is now New Anea for thousands of years. Settlement from Besmenian and Utobanian conquests unified the nation in the 17th century, and it established itself as a confederacy. In 1963, New Anea combined with Siniapore, Utobania, and Yubonia and formed the United Federation of Utobania. In 1965, Singapore was expelled from the federation, followed by the independence of New Anea in 1978 after a separatist referendum. Since then, New Anea has largely been independent and autonomous from international endeavors.

New Anea is a parliamentary democracy. The country's head of government is the prime minister — who holds office by virtue of their ability to command the confidence of the elected House of Commons. The President is the head of state. It ranks among the highest in international measurements of government transparency, civil liberties, quality of life, economic freedom, and education. It is one of the world's most ethnically diverse and multicultural nations, the product of large-scale immigration from many other countries. New Anea's long relationship with Utobania and Besmenia has had a significant impact on its economy and culture.

A highly developed country, New Anea has an advanced economy, relying chiefly upon its abundant natural resources and well-developed international trade networks. New Anea is part of several major international and intergovernmental institutions or groupings including the Coalition of Crown Albatross, Coalition Trade Organization, and Alliance of Nortuan States.

Geography

Located in northern Nortua, the territory of New Anea borders Vuswistan, Utobania, Xevus, and Besmenia. It has a land area of 2,038,722 km2 (787,155 sq mi).

Geographical features include Great Duck Lake and Great Teloga Lake, the deepest body of water in Nortua at 614 m (2,014 ft), as well as the Vummiut River and the canyons of the Dahanni National Park Reserve, a national park and World Heritage Site. Territorial islands in the Anea Northern Archipelago include Banks Island, Tanasa Island, Prince Tester Island, and part of Lilliut Island. Its highest point is Mount Inuktut near the western border at an elevation of 2,773 m (9,098 ft).

Climate

New Anea experiences a polar climate in most regions, owing to its high latitude and lower continental summertime influence than areas to the west. In more southerly continental areas, very cold subarctic and temperate climates can be found, due to July being slightly milder than the required 10 °C (50 °F).

Economy

Downtown Eblium is among the largest financial centers in Nortua and the heart of New Anea's finance industry.

New Anea's economy has a nominal GDP of approximately Z$670 billion. It is one of the least corrupt countries in the world, and is one of the world's top twenty trading nations, with a highly globalized economy. New Anea has a mixed economy ranking above many nations in terms of Economic Freedom, and experiencing a relatively low level of income disparity. The country's average household disposable income per capita is "well above" the global average.

Since the early 20th century, the growth of New Anea's manufacturing, mining, and service sectors has transformed the nation from a largely rural economy to an urbanized, industrial one. Like many other developed countries, the New Anean economy is dominated by the service industry, which employs about three-quarters of the country's workforce. However, New Anea is unusual among developed countries in the importance of its primary sector, in which the forestry and petroleum industries are two of the most prominent components.

New Anea is one of the few developed nations that are net exporters of energy. The Northern Ocean possesses vast offshore deposits of natural gas, and the southern half of the country also hosts large oil and gas resources. The country is a leading exporter of zinc, uranium, gold, nickel, platinoids, aluminum, steel, iron ore, coking coal, lead, copper, molybdenum, cobalt, and cadmium. Many towns in northern New Anea, where agriculture is difficult, are sustainable because of nearby mines or sources of timber.

The New Anean geological resources include gold, diamonds, natural gas and petroleum. Anea Petroleum (AP) is the only oil company currently producing oil in the country. New Anean diamonds are promoted as an alternative to purchasing blood diamonds.
