The Most Venerable Polis of Ortigia is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Delegates of the Council of Ten with a fair hand, and notable for its digital currency, ban on automobiles, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.135 billion Ortigians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aretusa. The average income tax rate is 84.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ortigian economy, worth 246 trillion Drachmas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 115,256 Drachmas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Mandatory electronic currency is a boon for credit card companies and government surveillance, the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Aretusa, Ortigian police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, and only fully-fledged members of MENSA are allowed to vote. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ortigia's national animal is the Aquila, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ortigia is ranked 93,237th in the world and 585th in Europe for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 66.67 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
