The Imperium of Agatep is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Retep I with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, state-planned economy, and soft-spoken computers. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 14.02 billion Agatepians 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, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Retpograd. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Agatepian economy, worth a remarkable 7,491 trillion Larcs 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 Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is a breathtaking 534,311 Larcs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet, exiles see that the line where the sky meets the sea is just clouds and rain, people are offered free trials to go to trial, and Jack Russells have proven to be terrible spies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Agatep's national animal is the Axolotl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Imperial Zeitgeist.

Agatep is ranked 117,200^th in the world and 329^th in Europe for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,837.57 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
