Slavery is strictly outlawed within the Republic, and women, ghouls, and even super mutants are allowed citizenship and government postings. The NCR is one of the few examples of law, order, and ethics prevailing in the wastes. Shady Sands was thus enabled to boom unchallenged and was eventually reorganized into the capitol city of the New California Republic. The capitol of the NCR, formerly a tiny village known as Shady Sands, was able to rise to power due in large part to the Vault Dweller – also known as the first Fallout’s main character – who removed the threat of radscorpion and raider assaults. Originally founded by escapees of Vault 13 and 15, its government is similar –though more loose - than the United States that preceded it.
History: Perhaps the largest proper nation in the wastes, the NCR boasts a population of 700,000+ as of 2250.
