The Empire Capital of Opiachus is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its smutty television, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 9.625 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, although Industry, Defense, and Social Policy are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Admiralty. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 35.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Opian economy, worth a remarkable 1,466 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 152,378 dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 920,045 per year while the poor average 11,320, a ratio of 81.3 to 1.

Assault rifles sized for 7-year-olds are a frighteningly popular export, athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society, the newest shade developed by Opiachus's dye industry has been dubbed 'Agent Orange', and a TV celebrity dominates the nation's newest democratic political party. 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 261,719th in the world and 2nd in Core Sector for Highest Poor Incomes, with 11,320.98 Standard Monetary Units.
