The United Nations of Opiachus is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Secretary-General Lee with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.692 billion Opians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The medium-sized, liberal, pro-business government prioritizes Education, with Defense, Industry, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Opiachus. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 34.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Opian economy, worth a remarkable 1,121 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 128,998 dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 713,220 per year while the poor average 11,765, a ratio of 60.6 to 1.

Politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech, hospitals in Opiachus are too busy serving the needs of Free Market Federation to see Opians, grannies get pulled over for knitting pullovers while driving, and city budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Opiachus's national animal is the dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Opiachus is ranked 285,068^th in the world and 22^nd in Free Market Federation for Most Beautiful Environments, with 4.11 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
