The Empire Capital of Opiachus is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, vat-grown people, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 9.743 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 Industry, Defense, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Admiralty. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 33.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Opian economy, worth a remarkable 1,516 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 155,683 dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 890,190 per year while the poor average 13,167, a ratio of 67.6 to 1.
Royal processions are often mistaken for pride parades, town welcome signs list corporate sponsors, giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, and citizens are less concerned with policy and more concerned with whether politicians "call 'em like they see 'em". Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Opiachus's national animal is the dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Opiachus is ranked 178,775th in the world and 7th in Core Sector for Fattest Citizens, with 9.73 Obesity Rate.
