The Kingdom of Octapia is a huge, safe nation, notable for its soft-spoken computers, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 443 million Octapians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 25.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Octapian economy, worth 20.5 trillion Aqua Stones a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 46,243 Aqua Stones, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding", political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from Leader's throne, parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend, and guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Octapia's national animal is the Octopus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Octapia is ranked 27,470th in the world and 81st in Artificial Solar System for Most Secular, with 38.65 Atheism Rate.
